I don't know where those casting numbers came from - where did you get them? I don't quite trust the FAQ for older stuff like this. I don't think there were enough people contributing that knew enough about the old stuff. But I don't know where to go to get good information.
G148493 is the engine serial number. It must be a '61, because those engine numbers start at G001001 according to the '61 shop manual. '62 motors started at G300001. They didn't use a G in '60.
A '61 motor with a G in the front and nothing in the rear is a 10:1, 4-bbl motor. Should be painted red. Probably should have chrome valve covers.
