D1VE-A2B is not the engine year coding but rather the cylinder block's engineering revision code.
Based on that number alone, your engine could be either a 1971, 1972 or 1973 model.
In order to more closely pinpoint the year of the engine, get the code off the cylinder heads. That code is located on the ouside of the heads, along the valve cover mounting rail and between the 3rd and 4th exhaust ports. Assuming your engine is original, that code will be either a D0VE-A, D1VE-A, D2VE-AA, or D3VE-A2A cast into the head.
Post the numbers,
