Hey guys, Is there is any chance anybody can help me with identifing my resteration project. I think it is a 1924 superior H Utility Truck? The badge on the bulk head is rather perished, i can just make out 21H I think the following number is the vechicle number 2643? I have checked for the engine numbers Block K 103 327773 3 Head 327772 2 Does this mean this is not the orginal head? I wanted a resteration project something different. This truck has the wooden cab and wooden flat bed. Just what i wanted. From what i can gather this has been off the road for about 50 years. Can anyone help me please on any info? ClayHead

pwj The 21H indicates that you have a 1924 Utility Express Truck that was built in Janesville Wisconsin USA. K103 = K=November. 10= day of the month, and 3= 1923. K103= November 10, 1923 Block # 327773 = 1924 engine.
I'm not sure about the cylinder head. There should be a casting date on your head, just like the K103 on the block. I hope this helps.

Hi, Remove the exhaust manifold and check the flat surface of the head where the manifold was mounted. You should find the same numbers as you would find on the block. If they match, it means that the engine and head left the assembly plant together. This number did not appear on every head and block, so it is no big deal if the number is not there.
