Hey Chris,
I was wondering what the date code (located on the top front of the block next to the timing case e.g. A123, 12A3, etc) and engine number prefix is?
Cheers
Mark

Hi Mark, the engine number is meant to be v890296p according to the rego sticker. But the block apears to have a blank tab where the engine number is. May not have been restamped after the block was decked im not sure as i have only had the car for a few

So what is the engine number? If there is no number then all the engine is good for is either a boat donk or anchor?
Or you could just search e-bay for a unique monaro number and sell it for top dollar.

Thanks Jim, Did a police check before purchasing the vehicle and all was good but this does explain the odd engine numbers. Could quite possibly trace the original engine number from the block codes or through the police. Thanks again mate, Chris.
