I used this software off the internet here:

http://www.stockmopar.com/mopar-vin-decoder.php?

I punch in "LH27 A69 XXXXXXX" and it says "A" is the code for the smaller 170 slant six! My Reg Card clearly says "Engine Capacity = 3,687cc" which must be the 225 as the 170 is around 2,800cc.

Is there a way I could confirm which engine i have in the car? I mean difference between the 225 and the 170?

Appreciate any help! Thanx

Syed

Measure the hose that goes from the head to the water-pump, if it is about 3inches long it's a 225 if about 2inches long it's a 170.

The engine has a stamp located here.

Once you've seen a 225 and a 170 side by side, you will know immediately! :D

Its OFFICIAL... she has the 170 :)

Engine number (under 1st spark plug) :

170 11 24

Casting number on the block (under the manifold)

2463230-1

PS: Anything more I can find out from these two set of numbers?

Cheers

Syed
