I recently discovered that the crankshaft included in my basket case Cadillac engine is not for my block. I beleive the engine to be a 1952 but could be a 53. Engine serial numbers are not from a production car but rather a replacement service engine and do not indicate year. Does anyone know if there was a change in the crankshafts for the 331CI engines and what others may fit.

Thanks Roger

Roger,

The crankshafts from 1949 to 1954 were the same except for the 53s with the Twin Turbine (dynaflow like mine)according to the Master Parts Book. Back then, you could have a brand new one for $106.40! By the way, the part # is 363 0176
