Bought an old 3.8 engine, the seller didn’t know from which car it came from. The engine and head numbers are VA 1057-9. Where might I find the casting date? The head has blue paint. The sump is steel, not aluminium. Which car had this as an original engine? [image] [image] [image] [image]

Picked up an old 3.8 engine, no casting date?

Rob Reilly posted this in '98. Looks like an XK150 3.8 litre 9:1 compression engine.
