Re: GPW & MB motor exchange / trade
What’s the casting date on your MB-458777 motor?

Re: GPW & MB motor exchange / trade
Not sure how to check that. Is it on the bottom of the block with the other casting numbers?

Re: GPW & MB motor exchange / trade
Yes. It's behind / below the starter towards the back of the block before the 638632. It will of the format XX - XX where the digit(s) to the left of the casting date are the month and the digit(s) to the right are the date. Yours will probably be 8 - 1x

Sorry the reply is late, don't get on 503 that much. Looks like 7-26. It was obscured by gunk and some paint.

Re: GPW & MB motor exchange / trade
Looking for an MB motor cast in early to mid May 1944 with an approximate serial number of MB-418XXX to possibly 420XXX? I have several engines available for trade if interested.

Re: GPW & MB motor exchange / trade
I am in need of any GPW engine freshly rebuilt, would prefer one from mid-late ‘43 if possible. I have a late war MB engine (MB586138) in mine right now that will be surplus to my needs once I find a replacement. I’m located in Tucson, AZ.
