Here is the response from the auction house on the "boat and rotation" question.

"NO- It is correct rotation. There are boat headers laying in the back ground. It was not raced or put in unit. I do think that this was the previous owners intent though. It was purchased with the boat headers on it- but we took them off and our seller knew the man that owned the motor in CA and went to his estate sale and bought it when he died cause he wouldn't sell the motor. It was just in his garage".

That does not exclude it from being a boat engine, I believe that reverse rotation engine were only used in "paired" engine systems for torque roll control. From the salt air corrosion on the engine and the black exhaust ports, I would guess a) that it had been in a boat and b) that it was run much longer than a dyno run.

This auction house certainly has a lot of interesting items........I would not bid on anything I could not personally inspect, too many unanswered questions, too many "I believe this/that" answers.....

The cammer certainly looks like it has a little more than dyno time on it from the pics.......

I looked at the pics of the 289 K-code motor, while the pics are not the best, from what I can see, that is NOT a K-code harmonic balancer on the front of the motor, makes one wonder about the rest of the motor.....maybe they were "told" it was a K-code motor?????

He did reply to you that he removed the boat headers
