Milage maker six

Can anyone tell me which 6 was made in 1963 known as the milage maker 6. The motor is in a 63 galaxie. Were these motors the same as that which were installed in the trucks?
Thanks in advance

I googled that for you and came up with this.

223
The 215 grew to 223 in³ (3.7 L) for the 1954 F-series. Output was now 115 hp (85 kW) (as the "Mileage Maker" in the trucks) and 120 hp (89 kW) in the 1955 cars. Power was up to 137 hp (102 kW) in the 1956 trucks.

That info is compliments of Wikipedia

Hope this helps you some.

Except for some minor changes through out the years, the only real diffence between the ones used on cars & trucks was the water pump.
