hey guys, i found a motor to rebuild for my jetboat. so far i identified the block as a 1990, and cant seem to tell what kind of heads it has. the numbers i see down by the rockers are 2e26 wcp 3(they also have what looks like a ww on one end and 15 on the other) . Where should i bee looking? I was wandering if these heads would be worth saving or i was pondering on dart, or world iron heads. Its not going to be that high hp probally arround 325. thanks for any help

 

What is the motor from, a boat or a vehicle?

 

the motor was from a boat. kodiak i bieleve. the block casting numbers are F0AE-6015-AA-14. 4BBl intake. The motor i have in my boat now is a 1995 redline marine 351w roller.
I was going to rebuild this one to have a spare on hand.

 

is there any info on the bottom of the intake ports?

 

I havent got the heads off yet, gotta get the exhaust manifolds off to get to the head bolts. that was another reason i was asking the old exhaust bolts are bieng a pain to get out. it looks like they used arp bolts and now the points on the bolt heads are rusted off. Its so tight with the marine manifolds that all you can get on there is a box end wrench.toasted the first sawzall blade i used, so i got a dimond tiped one for cutting cast steel. hopefully that will work better. Im not even sure the bolts wont snap off in the head.

 

Is that a cast iron intake manifold? I am curious what casting number is on it, I am interested in determining what stock 351W-4V intake manifolds were made.

 

yes its a cast 4bbl intake. i will get some numbers off it tonight.

 

If it's a complete marine motor is should be sporting some GT40 heads, Look for the "GT" identification as in the pic below..

 

no there not gt 40 heads, i have those on the newer block thats in the boat.
i found some more #'s whats worth using
heads: E8JLaa
intake: E6te 9425-cb
cam 845 stamped on the back
rods: D60E AA
