Cylinder Head Identification
7.4L
Engine Identification
Gen V and VI Cylinder heads are identified by their
smaller and rounded intake ports.
The MerCruiser Model can be determined by looking
at the last two letters of the engine code stamped into
the cylinder block. This code number is stamped on
all MerCruiser power packages and replacement
partial engines, but not replacement cylinder block
assemblies.
If the engine serial number and/or model decals are
missing, the engine code letters may help in deter-
mining the engine models. Following is a list of GM
engines and their respective code letters.
