Your probably looking at a mixture of parts anyway. When guys did those cases they were not average run of the mill. They did a few modifications. You probably can look at any book too start disassemble process. Nothing but little farm tractor motors.....

hard to find any info on these numbers, i have a delkron dkm engine the last two numbers are 88 i got the engine already built in 1990 from a local shop. from what ive seen the last two numbers could be the manufacture year. it still runs very strong.
