    Full flow or ??

    I saw this engine while browsing eBay,guy says he was told it was out of a 58 Golden Hawk..

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1958-Studebaker-Hawk-289-ci-Engine-fits-56-61-Hawks_W0QQitemZ260375999585QQihZ016QQcategoryZ33615QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem


    Is it a full flow (63 or later I think)or is it some sort of aftermarket job ? Maybe it isnt a Stude engine but Packard ?

    It has made me curious

    That is a 1958 289 engine by that engine number. Not a full flow, though. Could have been from a Hawk, or President, etc.

      Supercharged engines used in the golden hawks in 57-58 and also in the 57 Packard Clippers use numbers starting with PL and PS

        How about PS for GH, and LS for Packard, Bob. [?]

        And P64247 could still be as Barnlark (Dave) said, from a Hawk, Silver that is.

          I have probably got this all wrong..what made me ask was the oil filter, I thought that was why they are called full flow and I thought that was some point in '63 on...

            Full Flow blocks had a spin on filter, but it screwed onto the bottom, passenger side of the block, whereas earlier spin on filters (partial flow blocks) screwed onto the topside somewhere.

              Blocks with the full flow oil filter system were introduced in the mid '62 model year.

                Some full flow blocks especially in mid to late '62 trucks like my 7E7 had a cast and machined block off plate bolted to the full flow filer mount and the partial flow filter mounted up front.
