Default what year engine?
Is there a way I can tell what year the engine is that I bought? The guy i bought it from said it was out of a 1997 fedex truck.

There should be a casting on the side of the block that says when it was produced.

Look on the info tag on the gear casing near the injection pump. towards the bottom it should say the build date.

The manual trucks from 96-97.5 had a 215 hp pump and the automatics had a 180 pump, the 94-95 sticks and the automatics were different but lower hp than the later year models.
