there are no marks behind a starter motor on an FE

By hawkrod - 11/15/2002 2:01:01 PM; IP 198.81.27.8

never was and never will be. don't even bother pulling the starter to check as it is a total waste of time. numbers behind the starter is a small block, 365/385 phenomenon. the FE's from 68-71 very often have no identifying numbers on them. even if it had numbers it would not tell you what it is because the numbers ford used in those years could be any size engine. the only way to identify a 68-71 FE engine is to check the crank numbers and the bore size. hawkrod
