This may be a dumb question but I have to ask....
I know on GM (and perhaps Chrysler) engines, part of the VIN is stamped into the engine and transmissions making the assembly "matching". Is there such a thing on FOMOCO products?
I need to have my 460 rebuilt/replaced and was thinking of maybe going with the Jasper Class II 460 (385hp/475tq) Performance engine. (Anyone with Jasper Performance engine experience?) If there is a stamping on the block IDing the engine to my car, I'll look into them rebuilding MY engine, but if there is nothing then it's a mute point.
Thanks guys! BTW, here are the Jasper engine specs..... 3 year, 100,000 mile warranty

The Cleveland has part of the Vin stamped on the block just below were the heads mount, left hand side (drivers side), all-most concealed by the gearbox, up against the fire wall.
Might be able to view easily with a mirror, if engine is still in the bay?
Not sure about the other blocks thou sorry. You can just make it out in this pick |
