LOST- ID Help
I just bought a 1948 Ford Truck with what I think is a 69 W-31 motor and TH-400 trans. From everything I've read, this engine is awesome. It sounded great before I pulled it out of the truck. I pulled off the valve covers and it looked perfect, (At least according to my friend who knows what he's doing). The motor is gold in color. I think they clipped the the same vehicle they took the motor from. Also I'm trying to ID the rear end. I know a lot about concrete but just decided it was time to learn something about being a mechanic..haha Any help would be greatly appreciated. If I ask stupid questions it's because I really know very little about working on cars but am in the process of changing that. Here are the numbers that I found:
Block-395558 2 38M202626
Heads-5
Exhaust Manifold-417755
Quadrajet Carb-7045504 TM 1405
Oil Filler Tube-8196401
Trans-OC-68-136156
Rear End Axle Tube-PA 11 16 W L3 stamped just right of cover

I have other numbers but don't have my notebook with me right now. Let me know what else you guys need. Thanks again in advance

Thanks Joe, with your info I was able to find everything. Clip is from a 68 Camaro along with the rear end. The trans came from a car with a 396. Guess I'm going to have to do something with those springs to use them on the truck. One last question, is there any way to find out the rated HP for the motor I have? Thanks again
