Title: Unable to Pull VIN number online... advice?
Post by: travisdavid1987 on August 11, 2013, 12:26:06 pm

Alright so on my engine in my truck I pulled the casting number and it is 3756519 which I found online is a 58 to 62 year model 283 Engine. Also searched the VIN, which is FII29D. I was unable to find any information on the engine using that VIN number, wondering if anyone had any ideas as far as what that could be...?
