I got this with some other stuff from the Royer estate. I believe it to be a 29 Essex block with crankshaft but nothing else. 2 3/4 bore. I don't have an Essex....yet. Anybody need it? Located 50 mi N of Albany, NY

    I'm thinking 30/31 with the crankcase breather boss on the front drivers side.

    Definitely 1930. '31 had a re-inforcing ridge along the crankcase, similar to the 308 blocks later on. Looks a bit "weather worn"!!!

    thanks for the positive ID. Yeah, dirty but hasn't been out in the weather. Price is right. Come get it or it's goin to the scrap yard.

    Knew Geoff would nail it! Here is the re-inforcing rib that he speaks of on the 31.

    I'll learn this yet...
