The Motor is from GM Performance, every motor they list states "Not for Marine Use". As far as I can find out, they do that due to the extreme use & or extended WOT. So the 2 year warranty they provide would not be honored obviously.
The GM Marine engine they list online is identical with the smaller/lower less desirable upper intercooler from the CTV-S.

coming to market totally cleanable as everything is removable and put back together. No temp changes thru sections of the cooler itself because there is NO TONs of solder. . No seems to break or leak - no rolled metal with soldered 
end caps and so forth. 10 times the quality at basically the same price. Even when an engine lets go - totally taken apart and totally cleanable. No more throw away oil coolers and the same for the heat exchangers. The Heat exchangers are the same but of course larger is diameter and length than the oil cooler shown so just picture this as larger in size.

So the 6.2L SC motor here isn't provided by GM? I have been wondering as it seems like this would be a nice replacement for my 500EFI motors. Less weight, closed cooling and MORE room.

i was going to go this route on my old boat. was impossible to get a answer from GM about it. none of the local GM dealers or area rep had no idea either
id honestly just get a iron block 6.0 and go that way with some hard anodized heads

Sorry I missed this. I have some oil coolers in currently. I kind of messed up my timeframes here because I am working on cool fuels for Merc and Volvo with the same engineers here. I should have some heat exchangers coming in soon. My other delay is still making the list for crossovers per the OEM coolers and heat exchangers. That is very time consuming alone. For the past 2 weeks I got hammered with winterizations because our lows last week was 4 days straight in the 20 s. I am trying to catch up with this. THANKS for asking and your time
