Collection of Early LT5 VIN, MM Numbers - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Does anyone know how many complete production engines were actually made by Mercury?

We know the production cars is 6939, but how many other engines were made? I mean like warranty spares, crate engines etc.

What happened to the very first engine the guys assembled at Mercruiser on that Christmas eve? Did it have a number? How many engine blocks were cast by Dennisons?

What happened to all those engines that Lotus built when they were developing the engine? And how many did they build before they arrived at the final, definitive engine?
