Bmurray.... OMC made two different model 150's that year.<br /><br />Model 150TLCOS ...and... Model 150STLCOS.<br /><br />The cylinder heads are different. Which model do you have?

Re: 85 Johnson 150 heads wanted

Joe, thanks for your reply. How can I find out which heads I have? Is there a number I should look for?

BMurray.... The model number I listed above would be found on a plate that's attached to the port (left) transom bracket (bracket that's bolted to the boat), and it should also be listed on a core plug (Looks like a quarter sized freeze out plug) on top of the powerhead. I believe it would be on the top port bank near the cylinder head gasket.<br /><br />Other than getting the model number to me, you might look on the center side portion of the cylinder heads themselves for a six digit casting number, but I'm assuming that you don't have the heads.<br /><br />The model number would tell the tale.

MODEL # J150TLCOS<br />SERIAL # J6127565<br /># ON THE HEAD 328324<br /><br />there is another number on the freeze plug in the power head if needed. <br /><br />THANKS

Re: 85 Johnson 150 heads wanted

BMurray.... Those numbers tell it all. That number of 328324 is the port cyl head. did you need the strb head (328325) also? I have both in stock. Let me know what you have in mind, and contact me via my address so we don't tie up this site and we'll try to get together on a price. ReevesJ32@aol.com

With all the other work you've done on the set up you may want to think amout using the XP/GT (150S) heads. Like Joe said, they are different and they have a better swirl pattern. <br /><br />How's the thing running?

Re: 85 Johnson 150 heads wanted
