Question Econoline Engine ID Help Needed ASAP!!!

Hi All:
Can anyone tell me a way to determine what engine is in my 1963 Econoline Pickup? I need a new carb kit and need to know what engine I have, IE: 144 or 170.
I cannot so far find any tags or numbers on carb to help in ordering a kit so kinda skunked right now.

Is there a way to tell from VIN what engine is in truck? If so, VIN is: E10SH361192 if that might help.

THANKS in advance for your help. Look forward to your replies ASAP!!!

Buff

Don't have a clue what numbers mean other than bore of carb.

Question More Information Found On Carb!!!!

Greetings All:
After removing the carb from the motor, removed years of sludge and grime and on the base of carb found the following letters and numbers: C 30 FA stamped into the base.
Might anyone be able to tell me what carb kit I need from these numbers?? The carb is a FoMoCo Carb.

As always, your help is greatly appreciated :-)

I think if you take the information on the carb to NAPA they will be able to set you up with the right kit. Those carbs are pretty simple.
