I bought a bunch of parts off a guy closing a shop and selling everything he had. This was in the pile. Any idea exactly what the application was originally?
I've been messing with fishin motors and haven't touched one piece adapters, other than the one on my BP, and it's different.

Looks like a Land and Sea plate,They are ok but you cant change/replace the tuner as it is a one piece cast unit....Rob

Land and SeA .......

FYI : ( Not knocking your piece BUT ! )

Note the "lumps" casted into the area of the rear powerhead bolt holes ! That is also the way the 1991-1992 260, 245 HP MERK 1 piece tuner adapter was. This is the LEAST desirable 1 piece tuner adapter avauilable for racing because if you blend the "lumps" out to get max flow you will have two holes where they were ! If you are buying a 1 piece tuner adapter I would keep looking if you own that tuner adapter just don't get happy with a grinder unless you have a Tig welder handy !

Good luck !
