Re: Diamond Block Questions
After reading JRShaw's post (#16), I went back to my diamond A block and had a closer look. The number I gave in post #5 was incorrect. In better light, I can see it is J296 (not 1296) and just like JR's, it is preceded and followed by the shape of a screw head.
Following the reasoning expressed here, I figure that motor would have been cast on October 29th, 1936. Is that correct?
The block came to me as part of a deceased estate along with a couple of other disassembled motors, one being a B. The camshaft from the B block is easy to identify by the fuel pump lobe but how do I tell the B cam that was in the diamond A block from the ordinary A cams I also got?
