More than likely it's the 223 I-6, but could be the 262 I-6 (somewhat rarer). The intake and exhaust manifolds are on the left (Drivers) side. If on the opposite side, someone has swapped a later model engine.
Get the numbers off the warranty tag for someone on here to decode to find out what the original engine was (and possibly is).

It's not an EZ swap to install a 240 or 300 in a 1961/64, so I doubt this truck has one.
The 240/300's have the intake/exhaust manifolds on the right (passenger) side.

I'm aware of the engine series; just wanted to no what 262 's ran in. I've havn't seen one, and assume its alot stronger motor than a 233. Also describe the outside looks for me. I can bascially till the Y block series apart but as mention never seen a 262.
I'm not questioning if the engine was a 300 but "Anythings possible" to fab into a front motor mount frame. so a 240 or 300 could be in it.
I've seen some wacking stuff inside engine bays' before!!!!

but as mention never seen a 262.The 1961/64 223 and 262 I-6's look exactly the same from the outside. So do: FE engines, 239/256/272/292/312 Y blocks, 221/260/289/302's, 351C/351M/400's, 429/460's...and etc.
Internally...it's a different story.
