Re: Info on easy engine ID for Max wedge etc

[Dodger7998@xxxxxxx]

Rich,,,, one quick elimination would be check the engine stamp plate on top of motor,,,,,, 62 was the only 413 max wedges so if it is not a 62 engine chances are it is just a 413

My cousin went to Ecology Wrecking in Wilmington, CA which is near the old Lion's Dragstrip.  He happened to open the hood on a '63 Chevy pick-up and discovered what he says is a 413 Mopar motor and the pb trans was also installed. I guess it's complete. He also found a 1ton Dodge Van with either a 383 or 440. He said he couldn't get to the numbers on it. 

I was wondering if that 413 might have been a Max Wedge? How can he tell easily? Are the valve covers different? I think Dodger said they were. How about ID numbers? He is considering removing the heads if that's the case. Personally I think he should probably take the whole thing? What is the concensus with the rest of you?
