I should probably take a step out of this thread, I still don't follow whats trying to be accomplished.
I think I told him that the number on castings is not usually the part number. Although it is close! (1171402001 is the upper half part number for an M117) If it started with 117, it was more than likely off an m117 but could also be used on other engines!

I had already stepped out. What the heck , I think Frank provided the required info anyway.
