Thanks, what suprised me last night was when he saw some numbers he never saw before (stamped not cast), right after we reviewed the aspects of the casting number and the small 2. He saw something on the back area of the block and I said I will check that out when it gets home and do some research, and then he discussed how there were oil line hookups used for a dry sump (I think). So he was in that oil filter area when he was looking I imagine now when he saw the numbers. I thought maybe it will be some rebuilder codes or something.
