Default 2 cents worth of opinionated observation

Any help in getting some history would be appreciated.

IMHO:

Ford Canada, Windsor Ontario
No. 2 Mk. II*
Spring of 1944. Contract 2609
Modified for flame thrower installation.

You may find the serial number for the engine on the block. If it is the original block, the number on the block may be 2,000 higher that what the Carrier upper hull number would have been, and 1,000 higher than the production serial number.

The number TL1277TL you wrote about may in fact be TL12771L, a portion of the engine ventilator. That would be the part number, not related to serial number data.
