Just look at the block. Next to where the trans bolts onto, the engine code will be.

what does a sunroof have to do with what motor is in the car?

OP: to the left of the header flange on the block will be the engine code.

yea Just look on the block and you should be able to tell. But how can you not tell the difference between a D serie and a B serie?

i can he cant.
but he wont believe me until i can prove it too him somehow.
but the plot thickens- the engine code was grinded off
is there anything that can be legally done? like a lawsuit? i dont really hit the law books too often so idk
