Casting numbers & lock cylinder

[Dirtyharry]

First, does any one know a good website to look up your engines casting numbers? Second, i need to take out my ignition cylinder out of a 1967 gmc but have no keys. I took out the passenger lock cylinder but before I take it to a locksmith to get a key made. Anyone know of anyway else to get out the ignition cylinder?

Just order a new set of locks from Brothers or Classic Industries. It’s not expensive and you get locks and keys not worn out.

The only way to remove ignition lock without a key is to damage it. Stick a screw driver into slot for key and twist it against the stainless steel face plate on opening face of  lock cylinder to pry it off lock cylinder, once that stainless steel face is damaged enough ( bent twisted ) the lock is then loose and can be removed by finishing unscrewing the ignition switch chrome bezel.
