No, it must have the coast guard stamp, and they do not stamp it for free! :D it's got to have CG appoved on it.

the safe part is on my list so i guess i better get it right but i doubt my starter or alternator will be the safe variety

They need to be also, if you have seen what could happen, you would not even think about it.

Try to find marine rebuilds. They should not be too bad.:thumbsup:

after a little research i still believe the filter element in a k&n marine approved flame arrester is no different than any other filter they sell

i also would like to play dummies advocate and for the sake of debate take the dummy role which i play with ease and skill. so i think the marine uscg approved poop is poop. its a big list of overpriced glorified car parts with little if any difference other than price.carb,fuel pump,flame arrester,distributor,ignition,starter,alternator,fuel tank,fuel hose,spark plugs,instruments,all making build costs soar beyond worst nightmares. i need a stimulus check
