<h3>Engineered Marine Products: Marine-Grade Reliability for Automotive Systems</h3><p>Engineered Marine Products (EMP) brings precision engineering and marine-grade durability to the automotive aftermarket. With over 1,100 specialized components in their catalog, EMP applies the same rigorous standards required for harsh marine environments to create automotive parts that excel in demanding conditions. This manufacturer has built a reputation for producing components that withstand extreme temperatures, moisture, and vibration—qualities that translate directly to superior performance in automotive applications.</p><h3>Climate Control and Electrical Components</h3><p>One of EMP's core specialties lies in climate control system protection. Their <a href="/13199-engineered-marine-products-hvac-cut-off-switch-4209">HVAC cut-off switches</a> provide critical safety functions for heating and air conditioning systems, automatically interrupting power flow when pressure thresholds are exceeded. These switches serve as essential safeguards against compressor damage and system failures, making them indispensable for maintaining optimal cabin comfort and protecting expensive HVAC components from catastrophic failure.</p><h3>Transmission Control Technology</h3><p>Modern automatic transmissions rely on precise hydraulic control to manage gear changes smoothly and efficiently. EMP's <a href="/13199-engineered-marine-products-automatic-transmission-control-solenoid-7752">automatic transmission control solenoids</a> regulate transmission fluid pressure with exceptional accuracy, ensuring seamless shifts and optimal power delivery. These electro-hydraulic components play a vital role in transmission longevity, as proper solenoid function prevents harsh shifting, slippage, and premature wear of internal clutch packs and bands.</p><h3>Engine Cooling Solutions</h3><p>Maintaining proper engine temperature is fundamental to performance and longevity. EMP manufactures <a href="/13199-engineered-marine-products-engine-water-pump-2208">engine water pumps</a> that circulate coolant throughout the engine block, cylinder heads, and radiator system. Drawing on their marine heritage where cooling system reliability is non-negotiable, these water pumps feature durable construction with corrosion-resistant materials and precision-machined components. A failing water pump can lead to overheating and catastrophic engine damage, making quality replacement parts essential for any cooling system service.</p><h3>Engineering Philosophy</h3><p>What sets Engineered Marine Products apart is their commitment to over-engineering components for extreme conditions. Marine applications demand parts that can handle saltwater corrosion, constant vibration, and temperature fluctuations—challenges that also exist in automotive environments. This design philosophy results in parts with enhanced durability, longer service life, and greater reliability than standard replacement components. Whether you're servicing climate control systems, transmission repairs, or cooling system maintenance, EMP provides components engineered to exceed expectations.</p>

Fitment guaranteed
The Engineered Marine Products 300-00865 Contact Point Set is a replacement ignition component designed for Volvo Penta marine engines. This contact set is engineered for 1973 and later 6-cylinder 170 HP and V8 182-330 HP GM-based Volvo Penta engines.
Contact breaker points are electrical switches found in the ignition systems of spark-ignition engines, automatically operated by a cam driven by the engine. The points interrupt the current flowing in the primary winding of the ignition coil, and when the current stops flowing, the resulting collapse of the magnetic field induces a high voltage in the secondary winding to fire the spark plugs.
Key Features:
Since contact points operate frequently, they are subject to wear, causing erratic ignition, making regular replacement important for maintaining reliable engine performance. This OEM-quality replacement ensures proper ignition timing and efficient combustion in your Volvo Penta marine engine.
