Awhile back me and a buddy of mine went to the auction of a local engine machine shop that was going out of business after more than 50 years. I think part of their downfall was they didn"t seem to ever get rid of anything. It made me sick to see all of the blocks, cranks, rods, etc, many of them bagged and ready to sell to someone, all go to scrap. Not to mention the brand new valve train parts that all got dumped unceremoniously into carts and also taken to scrap. Anyway, I wound up with a fair amount of gasket kits out of the deal. Now my problem, I"m trying to figure out what some of them are for since they have nothing on the box but a part number. I"ve got hundreds of old catalogs, but have yet to find the part numbers in any of them I"ve come across yet. Bad thing is that there was a chart on the end of a storage cabinet with the numbers and what they were for, but it someone disappeared, and probably got knocked off and swept up as things were being moved around. Anyway, what I"ve got are McCord sets with part numbers like EK4000, EK4005, etc.
If anyone has a reference book that gives these numbers and what they are for, or can point me to somewhere I can get the info I would greatly appreciate it.
