So it should be the 251ci engine with a 25" head.
Your WC57 should have come with a 230ci engine with a 23" head, stamped T214.
Because you have a longer engine, you may find that modifications have been made to you truck to make room for the extra length.
Be sure you know what original is so you don't restore back in a later modification.
Good luck!
By the way, a note on Spitfire engines, to my knowledge a Spitfire head was only found on car engines. So unless the head was swapped, if you see a Spitfire head, the engine most likely came out of a car.
