Block # corresponding to VIN?

[-XXX-]

This would probably be answered by someone like CruiserDan but I will throw it out there.


If I have the numbers off of a block can it be cross referenced to a VIN?

second question, would a tear down and re-ring & main bearings be advised in adding the a supercharger to a 117000 mile engine?
My 94 is at 117000 miles and I am planning over the christmas break to add the KazumaTRD charger.

My opinion? Low enough miles not to fix it if it ain't broke.

Dunno about the VIN, but I'd guess yes. Pay no attention to that though. Why do you need to know- planning a restoration?

It is possible to get the original engine number by running the vin to pull a build sheet. It is not possible to go the other way.

I think the usual, is make sure cooling system is in tip-top shape, possibly preventative HG. Haven't heard anyone going much furter for a routine SC install.
