[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 394524, member: 3278"] Definitely not a 1958. Johnson started with the fiberglass cowls around 1960 or so. You have a "Super Quiet" and from the looks of it....quite a project. Give us a model number and we can pinpoint the year. I think it is a 1960 from the looks of it. [b]Edit - It is a 1960![/b] If you keep this up you will have to join the Florida chapter of https://www.aomci.org and show up at some of the meets. This is the Florida Chapter site. Very new so not too much information there yet. https://www.flaomci.com/ Also a Florida chapter on Facebook somewhere. Not on FB but I understand it is becoming quite active ON that engine the thermostat will need to open before water flow becomes visible. Your water pump will have two tubes going to it. Check all mounts on that engine. [/QUOTE]
