Technical 283 I.D info

I have a 283 I took out of a 61 pick up.I have been trying to decode the #s stamped on the tab on front of the block,but no luck on The internet so i was hoping somebody might have this info. the # is ( FII23WA ) thanks in advance, Pete. the casting # 3849852 shows it is a 283,

 

65 c10 175 horse 2 bbl

 

WA was used for the 283 in '65, '66, and '67. Behind, and to the right of the distributor hole on the block is the date code of the engine...usually a letter followed by three numbers. The last number will be the year...example: A236 = January 23rd, 1966.

 

I would like to hi-jack the thread for the same 283 info, please.
casting # 3849852
date code g216
number on the pad FO40IGF
Help please on original fitment & equip.
Thanks

True, but both of my replies were to identify their specific block numbers. The other engines you listed were for different block numbers.

 

Thanks guys, that was quick.

 

Agreed, the next step is date code and then casting number.

 

you thank us now...but wait'll you get our bill.

 

Direct the bill to : Hellen Wait, prefix that with : Go To.

Thanks again.

 

Thanx for the replies and when I the saw the FI part of the code I got excited,175 horse ( bummer ) thanx again Pete.
