Hello everyone, I am in the process of tearing down my Flathead and looking for the exact year and model. I have been looking on line for help. The motor does not have the original tranny so i will tell you what I have. I believe it is 39-41 truck motor. The heads are Stamped 99T-6049 Under the drivers side water pump on the block is stamped D 382 The water pumps are front mounted. The distributor is a "divers helmet" bell type. The intake is three bolt carb mount. The water intakes are in the center of the heads. The valves have split guides. I removed all valves getting ready for cleaning and magna fluxing. The casting number on top of the rear block is C10144 X1 The bore is 3.25 and the stroke is 3.75 I have not removed the crank yet so i don't know if it has the merc dimple.
I want to make sure I will be ordering the right parts for rebuild. Any and all help with this will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
