Find Eng VIN on 72 455


Recommended Posts

Greetings Forum Folks

You can now count me in as a fellow GS owner.

Recently purchased a 72 GS 455 original Fire Red with Black Vinyl top.

The chassis number correctly identifies the GS and 455 (non Stage 1).

It is a Flint car

The block casting # is 1238861 with 455 above which is correct I believe

The "WF" is stamped correctly between 5 and 7 on top face of the block.

So far I think I have a "correct" block. Trying to verify a "matching" engine.

1st question? directly to the right of the "WF" it is stamped "0b4". What is the 0b4?

2nd question? I removed the power steering pump. No Engine number there on front of block on driver side.

I used paint remover over on the passenger side in front of the Oil pressure sender. Nothing there either.

Do I need to pull timing cover off to find it on the passenger side?

Thank you for any input.

See you in Springfield
