I believe that the DBA # on your title corrosponds to the original eng. # in the truck. My 46, (titled as a 47) has a title # of DBA556970. The chassis # on the right under hood is 3DP-A 20669. As the 216 was changed for a 235, #0251808 F54Z long ago. None of the numbers match the title # The engine # is located just behind the dist. if you're lucky & the eng. hasn't been changed then it should match your title #. If you change engines, you should be able to have it inspected & change to the chassis # for your vin.
