swervin help!
 

hey man,

could you tell me how to read the suffix codes that you post on your site...

these are some #'s i pulled off my engine vi216fb. they are stamped in all uppercase letters on the front deck on the passenger side. i typed them i lower case so you could see that the second letter is an "i"...

thanks for the help if you can!:flag:

Here's the page for the fb suffix.

Scroll down to you see FB.

what do the letters in front of that # mean.

vi216fb

i guess its a 327. i will know for sure this weekend!

thanks for the tips!;)

I think it's part of the VIN of the vehicle the engine originally came in. There are more numbers which will help with the ID of this engine.

Check this site to help you with more numbers.
