Block # Question
Hi all,
This may be a dumb question ... but, how can I determine if the motor that is in my '66 is the original block? I can see (FO32IHE) on the passenger side on the front side of the block.
I have had the car for over 18 years and I am now in a position to get it back to stock.
Any thoughts??
THANKS!

Re: Block # Question (MikeinFL)
The F is Flint Michigan, the 0321 is March (third month), 21st day. That is the assembly date of the motor. The HE suffix, as mentioned is 327/300 HP with manual trans. What is the engine casting number, the engine casting date, AND what are the other numbers on the pad? Chuck
