Perkins diesel serial number

[Maritana]

I am trying to identify the Perkins engine in my 40 yr old Rosborough Banks Cruiser, recently acquired. The only numbering I can find on the block is a raised NW 37116500/3. How do I relate this to a specific model number or power rating? Thanks.

Should be a plate on the injector pump

Thanks. I found it. The number is FS5836B130. But not sure how to use that to find the model number, hp, max rpm etc.

Sorry the plate is on the actual block just Infront of the injector pump. It's quite difficult to locate under all the paint and grease

If it is four cylinders and forty years old, it might be a Perkins 4.236. Or maybe the smaller 4.108. If six cylinders, Perkins 6.354. Look online for pictures and details of these, and compare with what yours looks like

I will try that. There is no number in front of the injection pump. Thanks
