Hi,
thanks much for the help. Block:835309, head is 838355. I could not find any numbers behind the distributor. The pan has the troughs for the oilers. I'm sure from the numbers its a 48 most likely. I'll pull the head tomorrow and look at the pistons. I couldn't see much through the spark plug hole. It is a 15 bolter but has bigger prots than the 216 - its like the later 235.
I assume from your note either the crank was drilled or swapped for a later one. Is the only way to tell to check casting numbers of the crank (are there casting numbers on it?). its probably not worth much, but its cool and I'd like to rebuild it
