Engine ID
I have a 66 coupe that was origanally a 6 but i did not know that when i bought because i was 18 and just wanted a classic stang. It has a 289 since i bought it and i was wondering where i could look to get the engine id number and where i could find a referance of what that number means

Re: Engine ID
If you pull the starter you will see the info stamped on the block.

Re: Engine ID
Can i Id the car by only removing the starter or do i have to remove the headers also, because if i don't have to take the exhaust off that would be great

Re: Engine ID
You should be able to see the casting numbers with just the starter removed. That Falcon site pretty much tells it all.
