Hudson Question

How do I work out what engine it is, came out of a '53 Hawk? Any casting numbers or codes to look for?
 
Can't help you there... In '53, Hudson made Hornets, Wasps and Jets. The Hawk is from the Studebaker stable, and I don't have any info on them.
 
Good point, HN. The Hudson Hawk was made in 1991 only. ;)

Jeff (46 Stude) or the Studebaker Style forum might be able to help.
 
Well, that's different!!!! I can help you there...
1. Is there a reenforcing web in the block casting about 2 inches above the oil pan? if so, it is a 308 block. If not, it could be a 232, or a 262.
2. on the side of the block, just in front of the manifold is the engine serial number. Get me that, and I think I can track it down for you.
