this is my thought.
no I have not determined which cylinder. it IS on the passenger side 2 4 0r 6
engine casting # is 3849852
bellhousing # is 6263756
old intake 3840905
head cast date h 294 =aug 29 64 so 65 model year
my GUESS, because large hole in bellhousing, and rams horn. (passenger side, driver side changed to create room for old steering) is this came from a 65 truck. I could be way wrong.
