Re: Fageol Crank Case
Seb,
Yes, the rear seal bore can be modified to use the automotive rear seal.
Email me, and we'll discuss it.

Fageol Crank Case
I have a Fageol Crank case, from vertical Out Board use. I has heavy webbs, strapped mains, big oil feed holes and full dia 5/16 studs. How can I use this Crank Case with a flanged car type crank

The "engine number" you gave is the casting number. Your engine number will be found on the crankcase by the distributor. The engine you show is a later one, not original to the car,

Re: What to do with my 1946 crosley?
Looks like your engine was built around August/September 1949. Has some improvements over ones that are converted CoBra block engines.

Re: What to do with my 1946 crosley?
Service & Yankee have online stores if you want to browse before you call, there are links on the vendor page.
R209900 is the casting number and probably 99% of all Crosley cast iron blocks have that

Raymond, correct, that dashboard is NOT for any Crosley. A photo of the radio would help identify it.

Raymond,
That is the CASTING number, on the cast iron block, the engine number is stamped on the aluminum portion (the crankcase).

Interesting vintage 16mm film. If you start watching around 5 minutes you will see a wreck stopping the race. As they clear cars out of the way you can see a Hotshot with custom doors pulling away. It

Re: Crankshaft install
I didn't have a mark on the crankshaft pulley like Dave showed in his picture. So I got number one cylinder to TDC and timing mark on flywheel visible in the timing mark window on the bell housing.
