Well today is the day I start trying to get "my old one" back on the road.
My first problem that I have run into is the alternator bracket was home
made by the PO and is very flimsy. I would like to try and find the correct
bracket for this engine but I don't even know what I have. I do know it is
an older small block V-8. I can't see the engine casting numbers to try and
identify it that way. The only numbers I can see clearly are located on the
block directly at the base of the right cylinder head. The numbers
stenciled there are F0302D.
Is there someone I can contact to help me identify this engine. I bought a
bracket off of a late 60's C-10 hoping it would work, but, I have an inch of
shims between the bracket and the left head now and it's still not aligned
with the other pulleys.
Thanks again,
Robert T
