Head Gasket, Two different for same engine?

[Novax]

Needing to buy a head gasket for my engine but the list is showing 2, one is for a 2.6 and the other is for a 500? How do I know which one I need? the engine is a 1985 Evinrude 150xp (V6) Model #E150STLCOH

That's a good one. I just looked it up and I see what you mean. BRP is sometimes not the most accurate on their older parts diagrams. Maybe somebody else will chime in with more info.

That a miss type as that 500 should have been 150hp and the 0320745 gasket has been superseded to 0335360 according to dealer port. If I remember correctly this was a update to the thicker head gasket due to fuel issues...it drops static compression a tad.

You're right Fazt, I still got the old chart for lowering compression when the did away with leaded fuel.
