Toad 0 Posted May 6, 2009 I think I've found an engine number on my VR 11207996 Can anyone tell me where to find out what engine code and year it is? I assume I can do this on ETKA? Cheers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yandards 0 Posted May 7, 2009 Head code is no god mate, they are all jibberish unless anyone has a copy of the parts catalogue from 1994. The code is on the pulley end of the block around the same height as the alt pulley but furthur back, the 2.9 VR should start with ABV letter code (AAA for 2.8) and have 6 digits after it (as beigey has said) the ABV codes start at 001462 and go up to 018370 for original corrado engines. As your VR is a 94 model (IIRC) then it should be in the 011802-014927 range of ABV engine codes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
