The "S" is probably a "5". The last digit in the casting number refers to the number of core plug changes in the casting core.

I believe the secondary "S" code denotes "Special Engine" Possably a warranty. Perhaps in this case a Marine engine?
O.S. = .05 over sized valve guides X = over sized valve guides S = special engine SP = special engine (TA340 or Police) WT = Water Tested A = .020 oversized bore B = .010 under sized main and rod bearings E = cast crank I wish I knew where I found that info. I printed it out on a card and carry it with me now. |
