Plus the metal tag for a crate motor would be located on the passenger side of the bell housing not on the top like yours is. I have an engine with this in the shop I will see if I can get a pic. Oh wait, here it is online http://okiebenz.com/pics/603engine/images/MVC-011S.JPG Sent from my

Rights are to be removed from the felons who are not removed from the population. True crazies were committed, and thus had (in theory) no access to wea pons. The remainder are to be responsible for their actions. The -ists want everyone to be dependent sheeple so they can be controlled.
