I have been asked to help with an engine swap in a little old Commer Truck 1948 [show quality]. It has a really good clean "B" series sideplate that will be removed and replaced with a red motor and taller LS diff gears . Just that the owner asked me if anybody would need it . You guys know how to contact me . Ok the replacement motor will be on its way to Lismore [that's the location of the little truck].
Hi Mate is the Commer anything like mine I have been trying to identify the year correctly and been having no luck. I dont need an engine mine runs quite well with good compression etc but would appreciate some info if your friend has any.

Commer S15 Superpoise around 1950 . Just a guess but if you google the info off the ID plate or google Commer S15 Superpoise and maybe wiki after it you might find a link to a Kiwi owners club .
Hi Neil,
I have old NSW registration books and found 2 entries of your model.
S1511 - 1951 - Eng prefix 4SP30 - Chassis 31A5030 - HP 16.25 - W/Base 111" - GVM 5400lbs
S1511 - 1953 - Eng.4SP4020 Chassis 31A7927.
I hope this helps you.
Mal.
Hi guys thanks didn't mean to steal the thread I will check the engine number, I thought it may have been early fifties but wasn't sure.
Regards
