Does anyone have the block numbers for 3B's with 5 bearing cams up to when they did not sleeve the block. I'm looking for a 3B or 13B which will get turbocharged (13B-T's were either not sold or rarely sold in Central America) and I'd like to have a 5 bearing cam engine with the sleeves ie: not a 3BII.

I know this puts me in the '85 through about '88 years.

11411-58040 is the number for 8-84 to 10-85

HTH

Is that the block number or cam part number? I will be looking at engine blocks and without tearing them down there is no way to tell which ones are 5 bearing cams other than the engine serial number so I need a serial number range of where the 5 bearing cam started to where they stopped sleeving the 3B.

Sorry if my earlier question was unclear.

if you want one i have one here...

Yes, but shipping will kill it, not to mention the import taxes and registration hassles. There are lots of 3B's and or 13B's here since they came in Coaster buses and Dyna trucks as well.

You asked for a block number. My answer was clear. You owe me big time for having to contort myself to take this picture. :grinpimp:

That should be good! Now I know what to look for.
