That engine was built the same day as mine! My P-O-P says T0417JH and the car would have engine serial 19N634182. I have been looking for my block for some time. Original owner said he dropped a valve and damaged a cylinder but did not remember what happened to the block.

What did you do to that driveshaft?
It looks like it was set up in a lathe, spun and polished?
