357 Alpha 4V


Brief Summary

Mercury Remanufacturing designed the 357 Alpha 4V to be an inexpensive direct replacement for V-6 and small-block V-8 engines in a sterndrive packaged with an Alpha drive. Because it’s equipped with a four-barrel carburetor, the 275-hp (205-kw) 357 Alpha 4V offers a power upgrade over production 350-cubic-inch MerCruiser engines because they had two-barrel carburetors and made 250 hp (186.4 kw).
