This manual covers marinizing parts for early models produced between 1965 and 1969. These marine conversion kits were typically based on Ford inline-6 engines, adapted for marine use with raw water or keel cooling systems. Engines covered include those designated with engine codes E, F, G, H, and I, generally producing between 90 to 150 horsepower. The marinization process involved integrating marine gearboxes, such as Borg-Warner or Velvet Drive units with various gear reduction options, to create reliable propulsion systems for vessels of the era.

The purpose of this English-language parts manual is to provide detailed information essential for the identification and procurement of components for conversions. It serves as a critical resource for owners, mechanics, and technicians involved in maintaining or repairing these marine engines. Within its pages, users will find comprehensive listings and diagrams of parts, crucial for ensuring the continued performance and longevity of the marine powertrain.
