I am trying to identify my motor. The front plate got damaged and you cant read it. The head casting says PR4-8. It has the lumpy valve cover with a completely smooth intake manifold (doesn't have any words on it).

Here's a pic :

 

it ALMOST looks like a 1st gen teg motor, but ..
It's probably some b18a, either that, or a b18b, not many choices though.

 

looks like a b18a1 witht the b18b intake manifold manifold

hopefully it isnt a stolen motor

nope, 94-95 teg LS has this motor with this intake manifold stock. unless they changed manifolds, its a 94-95 LS. why dont u just look at the stamp on the front of the head?? it says the year the head was produced

 

B18B from a 92-93 teg....

Huh?

 

nahhh doood its def a 94-95 ls motor cuz the 96+ obd2's had a diffrent valve cover. and the earlier gens (b18a) had a diffrent IM

 

couldnt it be a first generation LS, b18a with a newer intake manifold.

yes. but all the OP has to do, is look at the casting on the head where the YEAR OF THE MOTOR is stamped.

 

Its a 94-95 LS B18B motor.

 

brigg's and stratton.... lol....b18a/b its one of those
