Tsunami Engines/Drives Questions????
I am looking at purchasing a 1975 Tsunami with twin original B30 3 carb. 6cyl motors with 270 outdrives. I am not familiar with these engines..are parts readily available?? Also, about the drives...are parts avaiable for these as well??..I do not want to purchase if parts are going to be impossible to find...Any and all help, including comments etc... appreciated!!!
Thanks -Fred

Yes, parts are available. There is a conversion manifold to change over to a single carburetor, as well.

Sierra used to carry the intake manifold. If you can't find that, use the fuel injection system from Volvo 160 or 164 automobile. It's the same motor.

Re: Tsunami Engines/Drives Questions????
Well after doing some research and pm's..I have decided to not purchase this Tsunami....darned exhaust manifolds alone for these engines are $1500-$2000 each...also many people stated heads crack/warp etc....well the search continues!!!
Thanks all for input and phone calls!! -Fred

It would be cheaper to buy a new engine
