Those are a V-4 configuration. Pretty good ol' motors, but drink like a wild Irishman in a pub.

yup. When in doubt, you can also just count the number of spark plugs too. 1 plug = 1 cylinder, so V4=4 cylinders= 4 spark plugs. Godd luck with the old motor. I have a '66 and even I got it running thanks to the help here on iboats.
