Hi Moz,

My Canadian chassis catalogue lists your CEBY as a late '57 272, export or replacement block.  As for the heads being posted I can't say for sure, as most of the Canadian produced engines I've come across have non-posted heads. All of our '57 engines, 272, 292 & 312 used the larger valve ECZ-G heads, so yours may have them too.  If it's a different number let me know and I'll look it up.

Just curious, but do your engine blocks have a two letter prefix and 4 or 5 character serial number stamped on the left front face of the block, below the head up by the valley cover?  Yours should have the prefix VG.

Thx Fellas,

You are walking talking encyclopedias of valuable information...

I'm using the info to make sure my ECZ-G's are posted. Seems a necissity if I plan to use these Jahns domed pistons.
