# 3801601 Engine Exch | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

## 🔧 Product Description

Genuine Volvo Penta remanufactured complete engine from the Engine group, weighing 1620 kg. It sits alongside the heavier reman engine 3801602 at 1650 kg, so the two are only 30 kg apart and the part number is what decides between them. This unit is supplied on an exchange basis: core deposit 3804601 is charged alongside it and refunded once the old unit is returned, so both numbers appear on the order.
