Help deciphering a block.....?
Cleaning up the garage today I was able to clean the grime off of one short block that was under some other stuff, and read the stamp on the pad. .......
F030IHF and the last diget could be an E. It was stamped with the bottom of the last one off the edge. Thanks in advance.

You'd need to get the casting date (or the number at the beginning of the vin on the pad)
to be sure, but the HE and HF were used in 65 and the HF in 66
HE 65 250hp manual trans
HF 65 300hp manual trans
HF 66 300hp manual trans

....Gee Mike, I thought for a serious question I should have a serious avatar. 
.....Soon, grasshopper, ....soon.
I didn't see any other numbers on the pad? I'll look for casting dates next.

Would there be any demand for this shortblock? Any idea as to value?
