Questions & Answers
Is this a genuine original part?
This is a premium quality aftermarket replacement part from Recmar, manufactured to meet or exceed original equipment (OE) standards for marine performance.
How do I know if it is compatible?
If your engine has **8 intake manifold bolts** (4 on each side) and was manufactured after 1996, this is the correct manifold. If you have 12 bolts, you require the "Pre-Vortec" version.
Does this include the installation gaskets?
This listing is for the intake manifold only. We strongly recommend purchasing new Vortec intake gaskets and a marine-grade RTV sealant to ensure a leak-free installation.
Note: Please verify your original part number or bolt count against the references above before purchasing. Technical support is available at 4boats.co.uk if you are unsure of fitment.
