Default Re: Identify Y block engine

Rod, Welcome back! I'm glad you're doing better.

ECK 6015 ?
I'll bet the block number above the oil filter looks like the photo below, except yours is painted.
I've got one just like it.
It's a '55-'56 block and a 292, not a 312.

The 312's were made starting with the ECZ series engine blocks.

The next part of your project might be ID'ing the heads.

A 292 w/3 deuces in a '37 is pretty nice.

I think zuburg might like an engine like yours (ok, without the 3 deuces) and he's just an hour away from you. See the second half of his post/thread at this link....
