Engine Identification
Hello !
I just purchased a 1973 F-350 with a holmes wrecker unit and need some info on engine identification.While I know how to check the VIN for it, my
problem is that this engine may have been replaced.
So how can I tell the difference between the 330 - 360 - 390 engines
that were available for that model and year? Is there a casting number
or some other way of this identification?
Thanks,Paul
