   Hi all,
   
   im in the process of putting a 16v engine in my 106 rallye. Can anyone tell me where the engine number is? Ive got a 10 digit number from the head, is that it or is that the part number for the head ?
   
   Any help would be appreciated.

   usually on the head mate... OR the person you got it off must have the old log book which also lists it

   Well ive had alook at it tonight and there is not a number on the front of the head, (there is one on the back but you could only read that with the engine out of the car )
   
   The only number i could see was this one, is it correct, starts "SOF 7 ......" near dipstick side

   i would imagine it too be on the block? As head can be changed, manufactuers normally pull the plaque on the block somewhere

    I think the engine number is stamped on the front, just to the right of your picture.
    
    Look here:

    The second picture shows it.

    Just might have to scratch it, like in the picture, to get the engine number accurately
