    1973 455 stage one engine identification

    Hi, Do you have any engine numbers for a 1973 455 engine that would verify it to be a stage one engine? My engine number is 43H534632. Thanks! Gary

    Gary,
    My suggestion would be to contact Sloan and see if they have a car that has either of the following Vin numbers. 4D37V3H534632(Stage 1) or 4D37U3H534632(NON Stage 1) Century GS It could also be a Riviera motor that was a stage 1 or not.Those numbers would be the only way to tell if this is Century GS.There was also a Stage 1 that came in the 73 Rivs as well, but I dont think this would be a Riv motor since the first 3 digits are 43H. Ususally, the Riv's numbers have a Y in them. Example 43Y534632.
    To be honest with you, I have documentation from Sloan that the last apparent Stage 1 produced in 1973 Century GS cars was in the 200's in the last 6 digits. I think its like 269600,so I am thinking its not a Stage 1,but I'd contact Sloan and see for sure.
