    There are two differnent styles of ski tow for the 455. The first bolts to 2 of the bellhousing bolts and 2 intake bolts. The second bolts to 4 bellhousing bolts. The problem with the first style is that it won't fit some of the common aftermarket intake manifolds as it was designed for a stock engine. The second style might have interference issues with the transom, particularly with a JE/JF pump where the engine sits a few inches further back. I had the second style on a Tahiti with a JC pump and had only about 2" clearance between the tow and transom.
