Monomonee, Monominee... It all depends on which end of 29 you're on.

You can look at the date code on the LR corner,



or the VIN code on the RF corner:

then where do i look all of this up? because in my auto class, we are ripping apart by buddy's iroc, and we didnt' know which kind of motor was in it, so we ripped out the motor, my teacher took down some numbers, went to his computer and found out every little thing about the motor, what vehicle it came outta and everything...i would ask him but he was gone all week, so i thought maybe you guys could help out before monday.

The serial number should have six digits which matched the original vehicle's VIN series.
