DPV2010 - November 23rd, 2010 at 07:24 PM

i have a buggy that i am trying to decide what engine to use. the two engines have no engine numbers from what i can find but on the base of the generator stand are:

316-48 78 and
8868179
are these numbers relevent?

Doesn't siund like any engine number I know... are they type 1 engines ???

Could be that they're out of a type 3, in which case the number would be stamped near the case join up by the oil cooler....

the numbers should be just below the generator stand...

and unless the generator stand is part of the engine crankcase which means they are VERY old...

later engine numbers have a prefix like HO - AD - etc..

does the engine look like Mine.... although it will be black.. lol

there are 4 engines at the farm, one has the gernerator stand connected to the block. But the one that I was lookng at as seperate. The number That i got is where the engine number is pointing. I will have another look and maybe post some pics when I head back up.

Cheers for the help!
