I think you're making a mistake first of all. I can rebuild a Holley with my eyes closed, but when my Edelbrock needed a rebuild, there were so many parts, I took it to a shop to have it done.

If its like a Holley, it can't be converted 100% to "approved" marine because of the seals on the throttle shaft. I don't know how Edelbrock makes them marine legal. You may be able to buy the needed parts to make it legal from them.
