Searched the forum before posting here and I know this must have been covered prior, but I can't seem to find a resource to identify the engine in my truck.
Truck is supposed to be a 46/47 1/2 ton.

Engine ID near distributor is (I think):
ADCA59217

See pic.

Thanks Gord,

If I'm reading this correctly that would make the truck a 3600 or 3800 rather than a 3100, right? Or at least the truck the engine came from.

Looks like that engine was stamped on any other day besides Tuesday. An engine built on a Tuesday is the best.
Monday: Hungover.
Wednesday: Hump Day!
Thursday: Friday Eave.
Friday: Thank God Its Friday!
