mercruiser engine query
Hi there,
I need a definitive answer to this question: I need a new set of piston rings for a mercruiser 2.5L 120 engine and would like to find an alternative set of rings to the genuine parts. I am led to believe that this engine is a derivitive of a Chev or GM unit. The block has GM stamped on it and the engine serial number is: 2773308. Can anyone stick their neck out, based on cast iron experience and tell me what other piston rings would fit this engine? cheers Terry |

The 2.5 Mercruiser engine is based on a Chevy II or Chevy Nova auto
engine from the early 1960's. The engine displacement was 153 ci which is 2.5L. A later version was called the Iron Duke, used for some small GM cars ln the 80's + - . The 3.0 ltr (183ci) version was marine / industrial only. Same basic engine with a larger bore . |
