Working on Fisher/Pierce Bearcat 55 Need advice and parts source

[William Jatzek]

I am working to resurrect a 1970 Bearcat 55 4 cycle outboard that has not run for 40 years. Is there anyone out there that is familiar with or has these engines I could get information from about these engines and if there are any part sources

I don’t know much about those but there is a dedicated Bearcat outboard parts store on Ebay you might find helpful.

Discount Marine Parts may also have a carburetor kit for your motor.

Aren’t those Crosley car engines? If so, perhaps there’s
a Crosley forum that could help?

Prepare to be boarded!

Forgot about that piece of history but yes, the Bearcat used a Crosley powerhead.   A google search for Crosley engine parts shows several sources where various parts are available if powerhead/ignition parts are needed.
