[bull1kevin]

Just got a 50 model 3 window the inline looks to be a newer version looks like it has motor mount bosses on the side like a v8 (it's still mounted in the front) how do you id the motor? casting #'s? thanks for any help. has "cheverolet" stamped longways acrossed the valve cover with the filler in the front.

If you can get the block or head casting number and you can tell what you have by going to this site and finding your number.

http://www.inliners.org/casting/numbers.html

on that page if you click CTRL + F (most web browsers) it will bring up a find window that you can type your number into and then click find.

What I have found a lot of times is the cast number to be worn down and or so grimy that you mistake a number for something else. best bet is to then find one that is close and then go back to the block or head and re-look at it to compare.

hope this helps.
