    Help me identify what engine I have in my new boat

    it did come with a hot water shower. I've seen other skirays with it as an option as factory. I'll trace it back at some point if I care. I really don't need a shower on a boat or a heater. I was just making sure that capped off hose wasn't supposed to be routed somewhere as the PO has obviously...

    Help me identify what engine I have in my new boat

    Looks like a truck starter? And by the way the boat is a 1998 Skiray sportster if that helps at all

    Help me identify what engine I have in my new boat

    Yeah it's a marine q jet for 5.7l pre vortec. Again, I'm not a chevy guy learning here. I'm going to keep the motor as is for this season so just want to get the correct carb, as plug and play as can be with the linkage etc. ( I know it will have to be tuned). So the 1409 is the way to go then?

    I have looked it to that carb thanks. What did this motor come with? A Q-jet? I think I have found a rebuilt pre vortec Q-jet for about $500 locally. Any good?

    Yeah that's what I am thinking as well. Ok should be more than plenty for this boat and what we're doing. Just need to get the carb and starter to make it safe

    Help me identify what engine I have in my new boat

    I'm not a chevy guy so bare with me. Am I just dealing with an old 350 ski mag with a swapped in block? my original post already says I know the carb isn't marine. That's why I am trying to identify what I am dealing with so I can get the appropriate carb etc. HP estimation on this motor? Thanks

    I counted 12 bolts on the intake. The valve covers have 4 center bolts which should make them vortec heads then? The heads have one sawtooth on the ends.

    ok so the casting number is 10243880 which I've searched and it's a crate motor but either a zz4 or an L31? Also the head bolts are straight across so what am I dealing with here? It's obviously a 350.

    Help me identify what engine I have in my new boat

    Help me identify what engine is have. It runs good but I was told it was a rebuilt zz4 crate motor. Obviously it's not as it has cast heads. I have heard earlier zz motors came with vortec heads. The original motor was a 305. This looks like a 350. The reason I want to know is that I want to get...

    Bought a 1998 Ski Ray RB inboard with zz4 motor and AVS2 carb

    Ok, I was thinking that.... You don't think the 1410 (750 cfm) would better match what's on there? It currently has 800 cfm

    Bought a 1998 Ski Ray RB inboard with zz4 motor and AVS2 carb

    Hi everyone I just picked up a really good shape 21' 1998 Ski Ray tournament bow rider. The motor was swapped to a zz4 350 crate motor. I noticed that it has an Edelbrock AVS2 800 cfm carb on it.
