    Perkins T6.354 Oil Change Question

    No mess The Perkins 6354 in my Mainship 34 had the same filter arrangement. As jgwinks points out, once shut down, the oil all drains out of the filter. Minimal oil spilled when changing the filter. Not sure if the filter is designed to be operated inverted, but that's how mine was.

    Propeller for Mainship 34

    I replaced the shaft in my 34 Mainship mk3 with 200 Perkins a number of years ago. I believe the prop shop said no more than 1.5x shaft diameter? There was only space for a donut style zinc on the shaft. I dont know what your distance is, or if it would cause the issues you're asking about...

    Propeller for Mainship 34

    In the picture, there appears to be a lot of overhang, distance between the cutlass and the prop? Could just be the picture, but you might want to measure and ask your prop shop.

    Need help!!! Lehman 120hp alternator

    I just did this over the summer. Went with Delco 12si units from a local supplier, A1 battery in Quincy, MA. The adjustment bolt tab location is different, and I ended up changing the adjusting arms for turnbuckle style arms to provide the needed clearance. If you're in the Boston area, you...

    Help: Late 70's GB42CL

    The other side While I completely agree with what's posted above, I think there's another side as well. I purchased a project 42 GB with questionable tanks and decks last fall, so I'm biased. If the funds to purchase a solid example today are not in your budget, if you have the time, skills...

    New to me GB 42. Need an engine.

    I would love a pair of Cummins! Twin engine setup, and one isn't really in the budget. Never mind two.

    New to me GB 42. Need an engine.

    As far as overhauling, its an option. It seems the machine shop costs alone, assuming my block and head are good, will be more than the price of a good used engine.

    New to me GB 42. Need an engine.

    New owner of GB 42 #647. Shes original and a project. After a boroscope, cylinder #5 is scored, engine smokes, and knocks. I'm on the hunt for a good running take out 2715E Lehman, as I'm thinking an engine swap will be the solution for me. If you've got a spare, I'm all ears.
