Engine number and type identification

Post by Vintageant »

The casting numbers on the engine block are 4263870 and 132AB0. What size is the engine and from which Fiat does it originate?
Thank you for your help.

These casting numbers won't tell you much. What you need is the engine number, and this will be stamped (not cast) into a flat area right above the oil filter housing, or to the rear of it. That number, plus the block serial number right below it, will tell you what you really have.
