Purchasing a vintage speedster 356 replica with some info stamped on the engine. I know what some of it means but not the
"RMM". Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'd take a guess and say possibly Rocky Mountain Motorworks.
They're known as both RMM and RMW depending on who's asking.
That's a decent bit of info to stamp on an engine, GOOD for them!!

A complete shot from the hip here, but there is a Riffle Machine & Motorworks listed on this site in the community/business/engines section.

Those look raised instead of stamped, may be the lighting. If raised how would you do that?
