I have a Gray 6 cyl motor and am trying to identify it. The motor number is F6226 4757. Can anyone provide the year, cu in,and horse power of this engine? I am trying to see if it will work in my boat.
Thank you. |

In 1958 and 1959 Chris Craft furnished a 22' Sea Skiff with what they called K,KL,M, 6 cylinder motors and the 185 Hp 283 ci V8 Motor.
The sixes ranged from 95 to 130 hp depending primarily in carburation. I think the M also had a slightly bigger bore also.
