[C320-list] Catalina 320 spun-bound polyester

[Warren Updike]

Yam, I'm guessing that the only similarity between the V2030 and the Perkins
M30 may be the engine block.  The stuff added to make it a marine engine:
heat exchanger, transmission, alternator, cooling water pump, hoses, etc.
are added by each separate engine supplier.  As far as I know, the only
source for genuine M30 parts is Perkins dealers and distributors.  You may
find that the injectors water pump, starter, filters, jerk pump, glow plugs,
etc. can be gotten from Volvo; but, it might be hard to know as I also guess
that Volvo part numbers are not the same.

I hope this will help. I also attempted to contact Catalina in Florida to
get their feedback on this.

This is for Catalina 320 1993 hull number is #012.


FYI: some of the picture are for Perkins perama M30  also know as Volvo
MD2030 which I am trying to rebuild

Thanks
