MerCruiser Inboard/Outdrive Model Identification Guide - MerCruiser Serial Number


350 MAG Alpha (1987 -1995)
Serial Number Range: B525982 - F600999

It looks like (F298821) falls into this range.

It's easy to determine 4BBL vs. 2 BBL. Remove the spark arrester (metal intake filter) and simply look.

Shrew said 350 MAG Alpha so yes. Being a MAG I would assume it's a 4bbl but as shrew said remove the flame arrester and take a look.

Taking another look at the link shrew provided I see the same serial number range list for the 260 HP 350, this is a 4 bbl engine and typically was connected to a Alpha drive.

I thought I saw more matches too, that's why I wasn't sure
