The yards tell me it would be much easier to identify the engine I need if I had a case #. Can any one give me what they need to check their inventories? | | |

54 3100 with 235
62 flatbed dump C60 with 261

This is also in thier catalog. Very friendly people F. Want to pinpoint engine I.D.? On the block above the end of the starter will be an initial (A-L), followed by either (2) or (3) numbers. The initial represents the month: the numbers are the day and year the block was cast. Now, then, no more guessing! http://www.chevrolet.com.au/articles/engine_swap.htm http://www.patricksantiquecars.com/ Good luck. Brent | | |
