I remembered seeing it! If I hadn't already bought my Firedome I would have tried to buy this car. I think it looks GREAT! Congratulations on the excellent purchase!!!

Location: New Castle PA		It will be STAMPED, not raised, on a flat area on top of the block, right at the back edge of the water pump. Kind of under the thermostat housing. I can send you a pic if you can't find it. Unless the engine is clean, you may need to wipe that area of any oil/dirt/grease to see it. For a 1957 Fireflite, it will be S26-xxxx. DeSoto used a weird stamping for the number 1, but the last characters ARE numbers, not letters. For example, if you think it is S26-34I2, that really is S26-3412.

Location: New Castle PA		Here's a photo that shows one on a Firedome. The Fireflite will be the same (location) but will start with S26 instead of S25. Remember how I said the number "1" is weird? In this picture, the motor number IS 41829, but looks like 4T829.
