Looking at the pics of the piston, it looks like it is a fresh build, judging by the hone marks in the next cylinder. This looks like it was a serious build. The headers, are definatly not for a boat. |

Reviving this old thread with new information: I just bought Chrysler Marine engine parts catalogues for the 225 marine engines made between '66 and '76, and can now say the water pump cover-and-spout is definitely a marine item, p/n 3527 494. The oil pan looks like a custom-welded job, but interestingly, it is shaped almost exactly like the marine unit. |

Interesting. I've been doing some more digging and haven't found any more info on the block number. I'm going to tear into the low end soon and look for a number on the crank. Thanks for all the info. Dave |

| Post subject: | question about this picture |
The motor in this picture has what looks like a a water out let coming from the front of the place on the motor where the fan usually is. I have a marine six. It has just a plain casing on the front. Is there some kind of water circulating pump in there?....I ask because mine might be making a "bad bearing" noise. Or some other bearing is going....but which one? Front main? |

Further digging in my library reveals: 1960-model LG (170 cubic inch) engine block. |
