Hi,
I am just getting into older trucks and find myself with information I know nothing about. I am in the process of buying a 6 cylinder for my 57 pickup. Someone put a 350 and changed the hubs to 5 lug so now I need to start collecting the parts to return it to its former glory. At any rate on the passenger side of the engine below the distributor and starting from the left there are many objects and numbers on the engine block. Can anyone decipher this “language”?
CON 2
Next there is a teardrop with 3 letters around it pointing at “N” at 0 degrees, “T” at 120 degrees and ”D” at 270 degrees.
Next there is a oblonged circle with E19 in the center.
Next there is another teardrop surrounded by 12 dots in a circle with one dot at the 12 o'clock position outside the circle.
Next the numbers 3921968 and below that GM and below that 57.
Can anyone tell me what all this means?
Thanks,
New to trucking,
