Need help Identifying a motor with the casting numbers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi All I could sure use some help here I purschased what I believe to be a 351 Windsor and have been trying to identify it as such with the casting numbers but I have had no luck. If someone could help me out I would greatly apprecate it I need to know what year this motor is if it is a 351 Windsor as I expect and if you can tell me if it is a truck or a car motor and what horsepower it left the factory as. It has a stock four barrell manifold on it. The casting numbers on my motor are E3AE-6015-BA 17 I also would appreciate any information on where you acquired your information so I would be able to find it myself in the future. Yhank you for your help in advance. I do greatly appreciate it. Gary

E3AE =E is for the decade it was made E IS 80'S
D is 70's Cis 60's 3 is for the year A is for Full size car E is for engine part So your 351 came from a 1983 Full size car! Hope this heips and the info came from a book titled "HOW-TO REBUILD SMALL BLOCK FORD ENGINES" by HPBooks |
RE: Need help Identifying a motor with the casting numbers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes. It's definitely '83 , but I'm wondering now - what casting number actually identifies the block size? "BA" being the change level might indicate that if you have a chart for it. I could give you a basic ID with a picture or two. They usually do cast the engine size on the cylinder head under the valve cover area, but I'm in a limbo without a full production list. The "A" in the code means Full Size car - but they came with different motors. The 6015 is a block code and may also indicate which block - but again I need a full list to know. I have the base list for most parts. Someone should write a book just on these codes.
