Do you have a model number for the engine also?

Is it a 4, 6, or 8 cylinder?

Thanks for responding.
I've been able to find the following.
On the intake side of the combined cylinder block is a dime sized cast circle with the letter F cast in. Possibly a model designation, also cast above the intake port the number 19101--probably a cylinder cast part number. Underneath the crankcase is cast 19252. Flywheel 02143.
Thanks again for your input.

Jim,

I can't tell from the casting numbers, maybe someone else can.

There was a Continental "L-Head" F model in various displacments, but without some additional info I can't say that is what it is.

I still don't know if it is a 4, 6, or 8 cylinder engine. Is there a Graymarine "nameplate" on the engine? That would have model number info.

You can post your response here.

Thanks.
