Hello,

I got the number off my car I think i may have missed a number in the front of the E I will try to look again later but i was wondering if anything can be told about what I have Stamp on the engine is E175432. On the tube where you put oil in is 9590575

That doesn't match my last six number of my VIN so I am guessing it is not the engine that came with the car.

Thanks Guys

 

I added another picture to show the number in front of the E I think it is a 9 or maybe a 8?

If it is a 9 that means the engine was build in 69 right?

what do the other numbers mean?


Thanks

Thanks hurst68olds. I was hoping the last numbers told if it was high compressed 4bbl or a 2 bbl. I guess it doesn't matter once I rebuild it.
