    How/where can I decode my engine? Where do I find the numbers? What about my carb and intake...can I decode them?

    Their are numbers cast into the block just above the starter but will be of no use to you unless you know how to decode them, the carb should have a little metal plate on it if it has never been worked on and tag thrown away
