I am trying to id the year model on my 351C that I recently purchased. This will truly help if someone could take the time.
What are the casting numbers and date codes on the heads?????
The casting code on the block is D2AE-CA does this mean it's from '72?
For D2AE-CA I have a 351C cobra jet block from 71-74. My listing does not say if it's a 2 or 4 bolt main though. But this will get you started. G.
BTW there should be a date code below the casting number you posted. It's a three digit number/letter/number in most cases. This will give you the exact year. The first digit will be the year ex: 4=74, 2=72 etc... second is the month "A" started the year as January so B for Feb etc... The last one or two numbers are the day of the month the block was cast on. Simple enough....G.
Thanks this helps me get started for sure it looks to be from Feb of '73 now it will be easier to get specs on this engine
