Default Merch 120-131 ID

Is there a way to tell if the Merch motor is a 120 or 131 by visual or the motor number?

EB32E2263 or EB32E22X3

thanks,
Mike

Not sure if you can ID it my numbers or not?

But ................ 120" has a 4.25" bore and 4.25" stroke
.......................131" has a 4.25" bore and 4.625" stroke

Pull the timeing plug off and turn it over till you find some numbers on the flywheels ............... if you find them google the numbers and try and see what stroke you have! ................ seems I remember the middle part of the wheels with say 120 ............ 131 cast into them but I maybe wrong on that!????
