    Question

    I have a Inline 8 in a 1950 super sedanette.
    The engine number is: 58575524.

    Looking at the identification page with your number, it would appear that it should be a 1950 motor, but a 40 sieries. But as you believe it to be a super, it should be a 50.

    You are right, Itīs from a series 40 buick but would that make the engine a 248" or a 263"?
    I guess a 248" but I would like to know

    I do believe that a 1950 series 40 should be a 248. [img]smile.gif[/img]
