Hi Guys! I have a 1967 A100 and I don't know how the heck to tell if its a 170 or a 225. People have told me to look at the Vin Plate, I don't see anything that says engine size?? I know the Vin# says its a 6, but not what size. How can I tell. I know the Bypass hose is about 2.5" long. Someone told me that if it is that long, it is a 225? When I bought the rig I was told it was a 170?? Any help would be appreciated! Mike mike.j.moser@boeing.com |

Frank Adkins covers this pretty well in his new book, go look at page # 1 & 2 for some Pics. (see the link below and links at the bottom of the "cover page" it goes to) From your discription, sounds like a 225. what does the bolck ID pad say, what is the block's casting number? DD Quote:

: Thanks Doug, It must be a 225 because I just
looked at the block and it says CT225_9_19. I'm guessing that is the date it was produced (9_19)? I know the van was sold in October 1966.
