Hi Guys , engine identification help needed,
mate of mine has just got his hands on a y block and need help in trying to identify
numbers on it CEB 6015 B near the distributor
cannot find any others
any idea what it is ??????????

 

CEB-6015-B

6015 is the basic number for a block casting number, but what the CEB prefix, B suffix refers to, I dunno.

The thing is, casting numbers cannot be cross referenced to Ford part numbers.

 

Send an email to John Mummert at FORD Y

He can probably tell you where to look for clues

 

Hi Guys thanks for your replies,,

have come up with another numbr

DV9 ECG 8053 B located behind the front pulley i came up with 272 ci 53 - 55

came anyone confirm

272 OHV Y block introduced in 1955 Ford Passenger Cars, 1956 F100/600 & C500/600 COE's.

8053 is a cooling related basic ID number (radiator/grille/waterpump & pulleys/hoses/belts, etc). 6053 is a cylinder head related basic casting number.

 

I think what Bill is trying to tell you is Ford didn't ID their engines with external casting #s or markings like some other manufacturers.

 

thanks guys can now service the engine
