But if it isn't the original block to the car its not really worth that kind of money in my opinion.

yes that would be nice to find the car it belongs to if it is still alive ??

Partial VIN will be down on the rough casting area by oil filter.

You sure it's not a Ford? I see a little Ford Blue paint! :)

looks like N684512 THE N&6 are very light but the 84512 is clear

It's good that you can read most of the vin. Most times, you can't read the vin down by the oil filter. I heard that some blocks weren't stamped with a vin, if this is true??

ALLZS 01-08-2020 10:33 PM

the guy that stamped must have been right handed !

You sure about that second number being an 8? That would make this engine a bit too early for that VIN. Is it a 5 or 6?? Got pics??

Seems a lot of blocks the N is not as clear, the fonts probably wore a lot from repeated use at the Norwood plant.

I’ve seen a few blocks with no vin, last one was a 02 car
