Here's a Lycoming document that explains it and shows a few ways of telling: https://www.lycoming.com/sites/default/files/Wide Deck Cylinder Configuration on Lycoming Engines.pdf My E has a factory rebuilt engine with a serial number ending in A, so it's a wide deck...but without the roller tappets (which would have an E at the end of the serial number). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your engine serial number ends with an A it’s a wide deck is what I read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought you could tell by the nuts that hold the cylinders on the crankcase. The “narrow deck “ have internal corners such as an Allen bolt where as the “wide deck” has the external corners much like the standard nut you would find on many places in your airplane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
