352 Ford Interceptors???? Says 318's in the ad, but doesn't look like 318's to me. Anyone?

Nice boat . But it worries me when the Owner doesn't know what engines it has .

"POWERED BY POWERFULL TWIN GAS V8'S WIDE BLOCK INTERSEPTORS 318'S CHYRSLERS THAT ARE 250 HORSE POWER EACH ."

Interceptors are Fords . And the thats what the photos show .

Thank you Paul. I am neither a Chrysler nor a Ford guy, but I do know I was looking at no 318 I was familiar with.

I dont think the owner is selling the boat , may be a broker, and he even spelled Trojan with an e

It's a Sea Voyager with 250 Interceptors (390 fords). Not bad looking, painted wrong. The spelling is terrible.

I was thinking they maybe 352 fords ( not 351) same block as the 390 ( 352-360-390-427 family ) ( yes 427 ford ) . But I could be wrong .My Info on these vague .Heavy engines Not sure how hard it would be to find marine parts .

Its listed as a privet seller , seller is in FLA but boat is in NY .

Could be a 351, forgot about those.

I say in 1969 at 250 hp its a 352. I'm no expert on marinized Ford blocks though.

Could have any engine it it, maybe changed out? as it looks like the pics are from 2 different times.
Look at hatch cover on pic 6 and then at same Hatch on pic 7

nice old woody though, for someone with a lot of time and love to spare

Your right two different times. In the water and hatch is flipped upside down and out of water hatch installed correctly. Still looks like a nice boat though.
