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

[Bill Watson <wwatson@xxxxxxxxx>]

Depends upon the year.  I have a 1962 Dodge Lancer GT and the engine number
is not on the build sheet.    Mind you, I know the engine is not original as
the prefix is "V 22", which makes it a 1964 225-cid slant six.
