[Risk Manuel]

I have a friend who just grabbed a mercury 200hp carb motor no serial just has kk stamp what motor is this is it 2.5 or a 2.4

KK? Is the block painted? All block stamps were 2.5’s....they didn’t block stamp 2.4’s.

my 245's have KK on them 2.5

[mach351]

my 245's have KK on them 2.5

That’s why I was asking him if they were painted....I thought KK was 245

[Risk Manuel]

Yea there painted I c kk on the other block

Weird. KK usually means 2.5 245 nic carb. I highly doubt someone went through the trouble of dressing a 245 up to look Stock like that. Early 2.5 heads on it. And a sweet throttle return spring.

can't see cyl..? can't see reed plate?.. can't see dowls? ..oiler block off plate?.. can't tell if divider is one or two piece?.. could be anywhere from '89 XR4 ta '91 200... "had" water cooled reg/rectifier, red flex plate.. definitely not a high perf motor of any kind

Did you get any more pics or figured out what it is??

wmh's with either pumps that have been deleted or tha one year that they had castings for 'em but no guts... believe that happened with some in early '92.. one piece divider plate..

would make it at least a fat block..

5 petal front (except '91 200).. all consistent with fat block carb'd 2.0, XR6, 175's, 200's for late '91's early '92's.. can see a build date but can't read tha numbers?...

Idk if its rite but I can see 1-21-88 maybe?

[tlwjkw]

if what I think is a one piece divider plate can't be "88.. also 40 amp water cooled didn't come out till '89.....
