    #95 Jerry – The full casting number is 2468030. That was used for both 413 and 426 S Wedge motors when there was a shortage in the normal run. I have the same in my 65 Satellite, but it has the remaining numbers.

  2. johnny bair says:

    I have a fairly new to me 1977 Plymouth Trailduster with a 360 ci and the stamped serial number on the drivers front side of the block just below the cylinder head doesn’t resemble anything I can find on line. These numbers are 77 2 107625 and just below that it shows 360 K 582.

    The VIN plate shows that it is a 1977 TD, while the vehicle certification label (VCL), shows an Aug 1976 build date. The raised casting number on the right side of the engine block shows 13-7-76 which appears to be one month prior to the build date (why 13)?. The raised casting numbers on the left side of the block shows 4045601-360 which I confirmed is a good number, built between 1974 & 1980. However, I cannot find any stamped sequence number on the right side of the block in order to see if it matches my VIN sequence number!

    Can you advise why there is no stamped sequence number on the left side of the block? Were there some that used the 6 digit number on the left front side instead. If so, then this is not the original engine! Bummer.

    Thanks for your help.

    Hi:
    I have a mid seventies marine 318. I’M not sure of rotation and we can’t get it started. Casting numbers from the block are 4006730-31812 . I did find a id plate on the bell housing : model is 273ATL16 TYPE 187 AND WITH A SERIAL NUMBER OF 106735. As I stand behind the fly wheel the front of the engine rotates to the right for starting. What do I have here. Please let me know. Thanks you very much. Dana

  8. jerry whitfield says:

    I have a 318″ engine which was in a 58 plymouth. Don’t know if it was original to the car or not.
    Can only read 7 digits of engine #:207370, due to power steering pump in the way. Also can see R318 raised lettering. Any suggestions or help you can give, greatly appreciated. I would like to know the year of mfg. of engine so I can be sure to have the correct carb for the car, since it only gets 10-11 mpg after full rebuild.
    I see also 6667D or 6661 D
    thank you

  15. Aly Juma says:

    Hi , I have a 1950 Desoto. The previous owners put in a Mopar motor number 2468230. A 318 small block motor.
    I am looking to get a fuel and water pump and alternator for it. Sorry I’m not a mechanic. Would I need a model number and a year of a Mopar car to order parts that are compatible with this motor. For example, I think the previous owner said it was from a 1964 or 65 Dodge dart. is there a way to cross check where this motor was in originally? And that way on rock auto etc I can order parts. I hope this makes sense. Thank you.
