Need some help. I recently received (today) a 4.6L crankshaft purchased through http://www.karkraft.com/modular_parts.htm for $79.00. It is advertised as follows: "Crankshaft 4.6 cast iron (6 bolt) fits Mach 1, Marauder & 4.6 2 valve. $129.00 new take outs SALE $79.00".
I opened the box it came in and all the rod journals and crank journals look beautiful but...I'm not sure it's a Romeo (what I need) crankshaft. It is a 6 bolt, but I know a handful of 8 bolt Romeo cranks are out there. The crank has the following factory RAISED markings: "F2LE 6303 AG" It has the following STAMPED markings: "KC (within a stamped circle), 317 7 3, 1604.2, and 47538 on the outside radius of the front counterweight. It has the following markings ENGRAVED by someone: "F6LE-6303-CA, BAL 1604.2, and $84F" These markings are all on the front counterweight with some dykem blue. Also, some green blotches of paint are dobbed in several locations on the crank.
Can anyone help identify this crankshaft? I'm ready for engine assembly this coming weekend and need to have the correct crank. I should mention this is a build-up for a 4.6L 2V cast iron engine. Thanks.
