Where exactly is the engine number on a cosworth 200 block?
General Car Related Discussion.To discuss anything that is related to cars and automotive technology that doesnt naturally fit into another forum catagory.
Above is also correct along with numbers sometimes stamped by the gearbox mounting lug. And on the lug would be engine code as per pinto ie N5A for example which was a 205 injection pinto.
These are all the numbers I can see at the moment, going to have a closer look later
2222
C8S1A
V90HM6015AB
Any ideas?
Thanks
Marc
The number starting v90 is most likely to be the actual part number for the block
The actual engine number should be stamped on the o/s of the engine on a flat area right of where it has the raised 200 letters
And slightly behind and above the alternator mounting , if this is clear of any markings then you most likely have a new block as said already
The four 2's are relative to piston sizing as there is four choices 1 to 4
ie an engine could have 4112 indicating the actual piston used in each bore
Ford ask for this info when ordering pistons
