I love me some 70's boats. Best part is now we have the technology to breathe some life back into these smogged to death 70's motors. I have always had a thing for the Chrysler Cordoba ever since my dad had one as a kid.  Factory CB....how awesome is that?  Some minor engine work can wake up the formerly 135 HP 360s most of these came with and put them at around 350 HP with very little trouble and better MPG to boot.  And let us not forget the Chrysler Imperial. The only car to ever be banned by every demolition derby because it could not be killed.

An upgrade to a modern electronic ignition will help it run better and more reliably, as many of these cars dabbled with all kinds of different ignition setups that were good ideas, but the technology wasn't up to snuff yet. Here is a great write up on the 351M. http://www.ford-trucks.com/article/idx/8/104/article/High_Performance_Options_for_the_351M400_Engine.html
