    I have a 1977 Dyne I/O and am in need of the two chrome louvered vents. Anyone have a source for these parts? image.jpg

    I have a spare pair that a member here sent me. I will use the ones I had since the louvers have been painted black on these. They are not chrome, the are (were) polished aluminum. They need a lot of elbow grease to shine.
    Send your address and I will pass them on.

    Ed, Sorry, I lost track of this thread, I'll get them shipped this week. I was given them with shipping by 'Jim' here on this board, shipping was free, so it is free to you too.

    Sorry I forgot about you.....

    Bernie,

    I received the vent ports today. I can't tell you how I appreciate it. The people on hydrodyners.com continue to astound me. I'll send pictures when they are installed. The cowl has been repainted and ready to go on.

    Thanks again Bernie.

    Ed

    You need to thank Jim. He converted his I-O boat to an outboard several years ago. I'm sure he is happy to see them in use. And yes, send pics. Love to look at these boats!
