Re: Engine Tag What is it?

believe half of what im going to write, but here it goes.......
I dont think its a serial # "tag" because if its a "tag" then you can easily take it off and it would defeate the porpuse of an engine having a serial # tag. Or, maybe the guy who re-manufactured that motor must have type of inventory control on the motor they rebuild. And maybe it is the # so and so that came of the assembly line at some GM plant. Thats all that come to mind, maybe some of these guys here that really know what theyre talking about can tell you exactly.
