427 Engine serial numbers
Hi guys, I'm trying to register my cobra the paperwork going to the state is asking for the engine serial number. I found the casted date code (Sept 8 1966) and it's definitely a side oiler. I looked on the right hand front side of the block and there is absolutely nothing there. I looked above the starter motor and ounce again nothing. Can anyone point me in the right direction to locate this info? The state won't accept my request without this bit of information.
Thank you in advance. |
You'll have to use the engine date code - VIN stamping was not required until the 1968 model year, and your engine was produced the previous year. Ford did partially stamp some engines prior to that, but it sounds like it was pretty inconsistent - so no guarantee yours would have been stamped. Check for stamping on a pad on the block just under the back of the driver's side cylinder head - just in case.
If your state won't accept the lack of a VIN or engine S/N, I guess you'll just have to give it away. LOL |
