No, unlike Mal this is totally voluntary. I won't be hounding every new member to crawl under their new cars and scrape grease off their engine to get me the numbers. This is only if the engine's out and easily accessed. I won't be posting this anywhere else or in anyone's thread. I will update it occasionally to keep it towards the top here so people see it.

And, this isn't a registry, it's a database of casting numbers and what they mean for Packard owners. If I get a real wild hair up my ass I'll do heads too. Think of this as a casting number equivalent of the stamped engine number database already on here, this will complement it. The point of this is, if someone is looking for an engine to replace in their car and find one, they can check the casting numbers and see if it's correct for their car.
