M38 F-Head question...
Posted: Mon Sep 19, 2011 7:41 pm
I was working on the cylinder head for my M38 that was delivered on 4/52. I noticed that it does not have a bypass hose outlet on the front which I believe is supposed to be on all M38 engines. It does have a water outlet on the top rear of the head that has a plug in it.
This is what is exactly on the top of the head for info.
3/12 Firing Order 1-3-4-2
800376
2 6.48 WILLYS
JEEP
Unfortantly the serial number on my block I believe has been machined off but someone stamped 19711 with a star symbol after that on the front of my head and on the block. Any ideas? I know this block has been rebuilt for sure because it has .060" pistons installed.
Just wondering if this is a rebuilt military engine off of something else like a gen set or something....
I hope to have get more info off the block when I get it out. Any info appreciated! Thanks!
