You wrote: Another question, the Red Book mentions an upgraded water pump housing for the big twins with a stainless baffle added but doesn’t list a part number and marine engine doesn’t show a superseded version but does mention two impellor sizes. I have the original water pump version so wonder if anyone has had trouble running that old style pump?
My Sierra catalog shows a new impeller beginning in 1958. Your golden javelin is a 1957.
1951-1957 is Sierra 18-3006, OMC 378891, superceded by 775521
1958 -1970 is 18-3083 OMC 377230, superceded by 777213
