What number would be stamped in a One Seventy gas block, and what in a 170 gas engine block? Did AC put a engine block in a 170 with fuel pump hole and delete plate?Did they stamp a 7,17, or 170 in them? Thanks Tracy

17 then a z suffix. No fuel pump hole. If there is a fuel pump hole with plate then engine is replacement..most likely from a Gleanet E....which may have the z suffix.
