Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 114 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2006 Posts: 114 | I am familiar decoding the NORMAL factory engine assembly serial number found on machined pad at the base of the distributor. However, when it deviates from the normal factory coding, I haven't found a source to decode it.
Here's my example. I have a 1959 235 6cylinder engine. The engine serial number is "12745 er CAL".
I believe this is a "replacement" engine. Not sure if GM replacement or from some engine rebuilder shop.
Does anyone know where there is documentation on this type of coding? I would like to learn more.
Thanks, Brian
