Hi Daryl,
This engine is in my 1966 WM300. The block stamp says IND251 with serial number, could not see the brass tags on the manifold side of engine.
Whats weird is the block is painted a darker green color while the cylinder head, oil pan, water pump, timing cover and crank pulley are all a faded red color, like the original engine would have been painted.
I suspect this block is out of a 525 Oliver Combine being the green color its painted?
The truck runs and drives alright, although I couldn't get it up past 30mph. Found the vacuum advance hose disconnected on the carb to distributor and now here the other day the electric fuel pump died. I guess these are why I couldn't get her up to 45 or 50mph..ha..ha!
Thanks,
Andy
