Re: [FWDLK] 1957 Correct Numbers Matching Engine Versus 1958



I don't know if any '57 Belvederes came w dual fours.  I guess it's
possible, but I've never seen a "numbers matching" one like you want.  '57
318s will have an engine # that starts P31- ###### (unless it's a Fury
engine then it will be FP31-######).  '58 Plymouth V8s were the first to not
use the P numbering system, which dated back to the 30s.  I'm not positive
on this, but I think a '58 V8 would start with MP-#######.  I have a '58
DeSoto block which starts MD-######.  Can anyone confirm the '58 Plymouth
engine number sequences?
