The engine you have in your Hyster is a rebuilt engine from a rebuilder called Ellis Piston Ring Sales address:147 North Market Street--Shreveport Louisiana, 71107------Phone # (318) 222-8458. If you are in a real pinch---check casting numbers on engine block and heads ----find someone in your area who deals in GM engines
