Default Re: identifying motor and tranny (SSNUFFY)

Engine: numbers stamped on engine deck just forward of passenger side cylinder head. And on rear inbetween the engine and bellhousing. Postem and will try to help you figure it out.

Tranny: thats easy, how many times does the tranny shift from stop to 60 mph???? 3 times= no overdrive :( 4 times= overdrive ;)
