440 block drain plugs

Post by Freddy »

hey guys it's been years since I visited.
I finally got the f-30 in the water this year and just had it pulled out for the winter.
I'm in the process of winterizing my raw water cooled 440 and I'm having difficulty identifying the drain plugs in my engine block.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

I just wanted to thank you for helping me out once again.
Initially, I only looked at the stbd. side of the motor. My laziness seemed to disappear when I was facing an overnight low temperature in the low teens and there it was.
