Can anyone tell me where to find the engine number on a new gen 3 coyote crate engine?
Thanks.

I thought your question was answered in another thread? It's a sticker on the LH side of the head. This is my Gen 3 crate from my Coupe build. Fresh out of the crate. The arrow points at the sticker you should find there. Unless Ford changed something...

HI, yes, I put the question up in another thread, but I'm pretty sure that sticker and QR code indicates plant (E1521 Essex) and date of manufacture ( 240321) and the next number on my engine is 0662. Is that the engine number?

This is a close-up of the label in the picture I posted previously. Just a bit older than yours... Yes, Essex plant code (Windsor, Canada). Ford part number, date, and then date code + sequential number. Those two together is the engine number. I'm 99.9% sure that's correct. Recording that number on any required documentation shouldn't be questioned as it's unique to your engine.

Thanks for that... the authorities should be happy with that data.
