The 351W engines in boats were from the Industrial Engine division. Had
different pulley sizes. Most out of Red Line Marine in Idaho.

Ford Industrial is Dearborn. I've never heard of Red Line. They must
have been a minority player.

Crusader, Pleasurecraft, Indmar, Holman-Moody, Palmer, Thermo Electron,
Interceptor, Commander, Waukesha, Kiekhaefer Aeromarine, now those are
Ford Industrial marine customers/builders. And of course, Mercruiser,
OMC, & Volvo-Penta outnumber the others in Ford 351 marine usage.

It was up to each marinization firm to specify pulleys & all accessories
for their application to the basic Ford industrial engine. Had nothing
to do with Ford, they pretty much supplied either a standard or HO
engine(usually 2 bbl. vs. 4bbl.), Std. or Rev. rotation.
