I cannot find a serial number on the engine, but the forklift serial number is: 460 561022. The whole upper engine kit would be fine if it is not too expensive.

real good, especially if you know what motor it has, or a serial number of either the motor or the engine, I would call engine power source in Rock Hill, South Carolina.
I would be surprised if they did -not- have the upper engine gasket kit on the shelve, but you may have to get the whole upper engine kit to get the head gasket.
