MY 83-87 - The engine number is stamped into the left-hand rear crankcase section.

MY 88-95 - The engine number is stamped into the right-hand rear side of the engine, just below the #4 exhaust outlet.

Now, what are the different engines available?  Look for the Tech-Session article regarding production information
