Hey gang,
Hoping someone has already figured this out, Basically I am trying to order a Gasket kit for my engine and I have run into a few issues that I would love the boat experts to chime in on.
so , I went and ordered a kit from a website that sells GLM, but the order was canceled and returned to me because apperantly there out of stock with no refile date.
The engine is : Ford 351w Serial # 4476062 ( 233)
The kit I ordered was:
Cylinder head and intake manifold gasket set for Mercruiser/OMC/Volvo
Mercruiser Ford 351CID engines: 233 HP S/N 4173000-4500860
OMC/Volvo Ford 5.8L/351 CID engines
OEM: 27-64763A2
Sierra: 18-4391
price was 41.17
I looked around and I have found that kit in a few other company's all asking 120 - 200$
So knowing that its a ford 351w, I went online to looking for similar numbers
Basically I found 3 kits that I can order:
Mr. Gasket 7123 Mr. Gasket Engine Overhaul Gasket Kit
Mr. Gasket 7124 Mr. Gasket Engine Overhaul Gasket Kit
Mr. Gasket 7125 Mr. Gasket Engine Overhaul Gasket Kit
According to the Sierra number, its this kit.

Just from looking at the valve cover gasket, it looks like its either 7123 or 7125
does anyone know if there is a difference?
the engine block I have is out of a boat that is tagged as "1975" so obviously 7123 is the more likely candidate, but when I look around I can go either way.
opinions? knowledge?
anyone?
