Default Question on engine block VIN
I am in the initial stages of licensing my ERA in which I assembled from kit form. I bought a bare 1987 ford 302 block from a local machine shop and built the engine up myself.
During my initial questioning with the Highway Patrol inspector, he said I need the VIN number off the block since it originally came from an actual vehicle. Of course, I have found no evidence of a VIN number on the block and the machine shop has no record of a VIN.
What are my options?, what do you guys do when using seasoned blocks in regards to registering?
