Please remember to keep engine inquiries or questions to people who own the engines to private contact, unless it directly relates to a technical topic others may be interested in. Smile

Looking for an engine for my June 17, 1953 kombi. I need a case that falls within these numbers.....-20-0591 102 and -20-0600 000. I would consider one that is close to these numbers on either side.

Hmm..

After looking up the codes on the above engines, I looked to see what the engine code should be for my DC.. My M-code plate dates my DC as built in Nov. '63, but according to my Vin#1197994 it was built in October. If I wanted to find a 'correct' coded case, which should I look for, October or November?

It shows November on this site. Remember the #'s shown in the VIN Tech. are for the last # of the month, not the first.

Ahhh.. ok. Didn't realize that. Thanks!

Looking for a late Dec 66 (ending H0 309 830), early Jan 67 case (ending H0 707 628). My bus was built Dec. 28th 66. The only odd thing I noticed is that from the end of Dec to the end of Jan the HO case numbers span 400,000 give or take, well above any other month to month average???.

Thanks L.A.B., this is exactly what this thread is all about. Ok guys, here's a great opportunity, if you have one of the buses matching the above engines, it does not get any easier then this. Laughing

I have two 36HP engines-

1) 2570745 supposedly sept '58 and from a Type II. Mostly complete exc. muffler and air cleaner.
2) 2328954 also supposedly mar '58 from an unk veh. Longblock with some ancillary parts.

Both need a rebuild. I also have about 4 or 5 40hp lngblocks and separate parts laying around. If you are interested I can get the #s. These are free. I can even help with delivery around Central CA. I hate to throw anything away.

*EDIT* I had the #'s switched. Embarassed

& wrong
