    Help identifying V6 Engine

    I have purchased a 1946 willys jeep that some one has installed what I believe to be a 225 V6 Buick engine. Having trouble getting to run correctly so am trying to identify so can check on parts/Maybe rebuild.
    The information I have so far is only casting numbers
    Engine B1358435
    Left Head B1368767-B GM2
    Right Head B1368767-B GM3
    Intake manifold B1369905-2m
    Production Code LH 196
    As far as Engine ID number that from what I find is stamped just below the head on the left side front. There is no trace of a number where it is shown listed. But in the middle of the machined area there is a lone 2 stamped.

    Is there anyone out there that could tell me anything about this engine?
    I am thinking the carb is incorrect but there are no numbers on it. It is a 1 brl.

    Looking forward to hearing from anyone on this.

    'LH' is the 'high power' v6 option in 1965, the carb is supposed to be single barrel.

    you can fit modern neoprene seals on both the front and rear of the crank if you do a rebuild.
