RE: STILL cant tell 3A and ABA apart

["BHonnold" <bhonnold@pac-cap.com>]

The 3A block is a bubble block, kinda bubbles or bells out at the bottom and
the oil filter flange has two fittings.

The ABA has a more straight up look to the lower part and has three fittings
on the oil filter flange.

The ABA also will have the crank sensor hole just below and toward the
flywheel end on the front of the block.
