So then the # 481988 is the casting number, located passenger side near distributor,below the head.What can you tell about a motor from this? I cannot tell from the pics i was sent what the block code is or any other codes other than the heads which are stamped 46 on both sides. I guess i'll have to e-mail him back to ask him.
