Tips on finding the right parts you are looking for on this website.
The first step to finding the correct parts are to use the Engine Components Manual that came with the engine, vessel or was purchased separately. This manual is available in printed format, and is available here if you would like to own a copy and don't already have one. This manual is extremely important as it allows you to read all the current part descriptions that match this website and shows the detail diagrams that correspond to parts. The Engine Components Manual was updated at the same time this website was being written to match. Older manuals have many of the same part numbers but the descriptions will vary.
Once you have the components manual there are some things that will help you find more on this website.
Because the Peninsular marine engines were initially 6.2L engines and then later became 6.5L engines there are many parts that interchange with both engines. The base long blocks are dramatically different, but the external marine components are virtually the same, but with some parts being offered when the engines evolved.
Paying attention to the starting 3 numbers of the part number of the below you will see things that will help you identify whether a part is just for a 6.2, fits both 6.2 and 6.5 or is just for 6.5 engines. This is helpful to know as not all parts are identified whether they fit which unit in the descriptions, many are though. If the description and part number don't indicate compatibility it's likely the part fits both engines, you can also ask us to confirm.
620xxxx - These parts only apply to 6.2L engines (usually internal parts of the engine)
625xxxx - These parts apply to both 6.2L and 6.5L engines
650xxxx - These parts only apply to 6.5L engines
