New guy here. Just bought a '77 Hawaiian

[Hawaii50]

Hey everyone, I just bought my first boat, a project 1977 Hawaiian. I got if off ebay, it is missing the motor, needs interior work, and needs paint. It had a 396 in it, and came with the mounting plates, no exhaust though. I am a ford guy, and want to put a BBF in it. Where can I find the right brackets, and would anyone want mine? From what I have read mine is a 4pt mount. Any input or suggestions would be awesome, I really want to get it running for this summer, then do the paint and interior over next winter.
Here it is on

Post pick of the mounts. I have a friend doing an Olds swap to a 454 Chevy that can use them.

Thanks for the reply's! I do not have a motor yet, but plan to get one real soon.
Here are the pics of the parts:

I also have the driveline, is it the same or different from BBC to BBF?

[slotracer]

driveshaft will be the same. the pto off the back of the crank is different.

[Hawaii50]

So the PTo is like a yoke correct? My list is a motor, corresponding mounts, headers, ignition, and anything else? Also, I searched here and ebay and couldnt find anything. Are there any other classified forums or places to buy the parts I need?
Thanks!

[loudpipessavelives]

my list started out like that, i forgot about all the small stuff you dont really think about

how much are you looking spend on a 460?

[Hawaii50]

Isnt that for a V drive or does it not matter? I am going to pickNpull tomorrow for a motor hopefully, I will let you guys know what I get.
Where is a good place to get headers?

[slotracer]

its for either or. i have a complete 460 in a boat that for the right price could be sold. it is a harmin marine 460 with headers and a msd dist. p.m. with a offer.

I've got a near complete, but fully dis-assembled '78 Hawaiian that was 460 powered, missing fuel tanks, engine, and basic hardware (nuts and bolts) to put back together. Do a search in the SPAM section for Hawaiian for sale. Lots of pic's.
Might work a deal on the whole package if someone has a friend making a trip from the Seattle/Tacoma area down to mid/southern Cal, as I have a block and heads that need to make the trip too.

hey,
I have a nicson rear mount I am getting rid of, along with a flywheel, off of my 460. I also have a PTO that will go with it, I am upgrading to a flexplate style. Flywheel will need a new ring gear Glenwood Marine should have one, around 50 dollars.
interested? I'll sell it cheap, 80 bucks.
I also have Nicson exhaust logs with elbows, exhaust bells, and the rubber hose part that connects them. They aren't perfect, but they are decent.

[Hawaii50]

I am definately interested in ANY parts. Please post pics or send them to SilverLX@sbcglobal.net THANKS!

Talk to paul Kane at hydroflow dynamics.He will help you out
I google searched hydroflow dynamics and found nothing. How do I get ahold of him/them?
What are my brackets worth?
Also, does anyone have a picture album online of doing something similiar to their boat? I have searched and had no luck.
Thanks

What a coincidence...I have the marine parts complete with Glenwood front plate, waterpump cover, rear bell housing, coupler and driveshaft. I have a Milodon 10-qt jet boat oil pan, too. I was intending to build a 400-500HP "460 Jet boat swap build" and put the whole package in the classifieds here on the Forum. But nothing is set in stone.
Hawaii50, got your PM. I am in the San Francisco Bay Area. Will contact you on Monday or so.
