Anyone located in NOVA that can give me some places to go for engine parts? Not sure of the boating places around here and google is not giving me the results I need.

What engine parts are you looking for? If it's just engine mechanicals, then most automotive stuff is the same. That DOES NOT include electrical and fuel system parts (and head gaskets), they are marine specific.

Filters, spark plugs, rotor, spark plug wires (I recommended 8mm silicone) and fuses are about all you could get from an auto store. Everything else needs to be SAE-J1171 certified (marine spec). What specifically are you after? I have the websites of quite a few on-line dealers in that sort of stuff, but I use different sites for different parts.

Most N.A.P.A. Stores stock marine electrical/fuel components for the newer models.....the older parts are available through their very inclusive catalogs.
