Re: ID this motor?

[Dave Casey <dcasey@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The block in my Polara is from a 413 motorhome, and it had those same heads 
on it. The block-off plates in the front are where the truck water pump 
housing used to attach. You'll also notice that the exhaust manifolds have a 
weird 3-bolt pattern around the middle two ports. The heads are also beefier 
than car heads and will have longer head bolts than usual. The block 
probably has its casting number near the oil pressure sender and not on the 
side of the block where they are on car engines.

Supposedly these block can be punched out safely to 440 but I never had mine 
sonic tested. It's still a 0.040 over 413.
