Re: casting numbers
Right front of the engine on the deck of the block in front of the head should be some numbers stamped. Those will tell you what the engine is. If you need the numbers on the rear of the block use a cell phone camera to sneak back there and take them.

Re: casting numbers
Ive always had plenty of room to climb in the engine bay and peek behind the cylinder head. It does help to take a wire brush and degreaser to the area first. You can tape a piece of paper down in there and rub it with a pencil as well. Good luck.

Re: casting numbers
Use a flashlight and a big mirror. Shine the light into the mirror and angle it behind the head.
Numbers on the front pad will tell you where and when the motor was built and what it was in originally. |
