Reply To: 1956 Scott Atwater 7.5 hp Bail-a-matic impeller install

Mumbles, the thought crossed my mind to make a second liner to make the
pump ID even smaller. I’ll ponder it tomorrow.

Found out today that the old impellers that were in in when I took
the pump apart, were Lord impellers, # J7598.
Found one reference online that said they also fit 33& 35 hp McCollough
outboards. I’m curious as to what I’ll find in Scott Bailer project #2.
I pulled the lower unit off of it this afternoon, but did not open up the
pumps yet. Will be interesting to see how much contact the slackest
vane has. The Lord impellers I took out of Bailer #1 didn’t seem any
bigger OD than the Honda impellers, but suppose they could have been
worn down some.

Prepare to be boarded!
