Pretty much the concern whether you own a Interceptor,Gray, Holman Moody or even a PCM

The GM 8.1L and GM 8.2L are the 496 and 502 engines., they are not the same although many external parts might interchange.

This is a copy from PCM Mark Snider sent me back in the day. Just a word document of the file when they outfitted the Pythons.

Python 502 Parts List

RP030003-Spark Plugs
RP061017-Impeller Kit
RP173081-Cap/Rotor Kit
R026002-Thermostat (use RP026002 Kit)
RM0121 Gskt. for R026002
R077001-Ford oil filter (remote mount)
R077002-Gm Oil Filter (on block)
RK120011-454 Plug wire set
RK120011A-Python plug wire set (Purple)
RA122015-Starter

INJECTORS, SENDERS SO ON

R020002-Water temp sender
R020014A-Water temp switch
R020015-Oil pressure switch
R130012 Relay-Fuel Pump

RN0172 Fuel Injector
R047222 Injector o-rings

Externals are really what I’m after anyway. I’ve found a few things I cannot wanted to replace but most things aren’t listed for a python or 8.2..

So what’s the status on this project man? I’ll be in Grapevine February 10-12 for a work conference. Be willling to lend a hand if you need some help??

If it’s the same list you sent me a while back it’s just the Pcm rebranded peripherals... plugs, filters, etc. No engine internals or anything like that.

Zach you ever find the OG parts list?

Appears most did... Only a few part numbers in my search most of which fit 454-502 from several different marinizers.

Probably a short pump, so the less common of the 2 typical auto types. Not sure if all marinizers used the same pump that Pcm did.

The Everglades are apparently full of them.

Show off

I theoretically have the original parts list used for the original python 502 build.

It’s just a word document I think direct from Mark Snider.

Looks to be 6ci short.

New long block the same configuration as the original? It’d have to be for the stock tune to carry over. Curious how you spec’d the heads and cam.

Thanks Zach that would be rad if you've still got it.

Glad you've moved on to greener pastures but wish you were still around for the motor laundry list and some seadeck once it's a runner.

hope all is good.
