Hi guys,
My 1957 Pickup had a 327 V8 put into it a few years ago. The guy who put it in has since passed away, and I am trying to figure out where this engine came from.
There is a plate on the left side, just under the passenger valve cover. It is flat and looks a small extension of the block.
The only numbers that I can read stamped into this block are:
V062 HP
The HP is separate and is about 3/4 inch or so away from the other letters.
Does anyone have any ideas, or are there any other places that I can look to get the serial number off this motor?
It just looks like that front plate was stamped too softly. I've cleaned the area thoroughly, and all I can read is the V062 HP. It looks like there are some numbers before it, but I can't read any of them.
Should I take a light sand paper to it to see if I can get down to the metal?
Not too sure what to do . . .
Thanks to anyone who might be able to help on this . . . .
