Can anyone tell me what make these engines are? The boat is a 1972. Here is a picture of them. Sorry in advanced for not having a great picture. I am not near the boat at them moment and this is the best picture I have at the moment.

the block number should give you a start. As for a mfg like merc, volvo etc.. Its not going to happen. The only definitive way you will find out whats in them is to take them apart. More than likely they are 350 sbc's

They look like Chevy & most likely they are Crusader 350cu 300hp with Volvo drives as many Magnum sports & sedans had that powertrain. The main difference I see is your exhaust manifolds have been replaced with aftermarket ones. The pic I'm posting are what my sedans looked like when it was new.




They could be Crusaders marine a long time ago..
