Hmmm...my info sez...
By Dan Davis - 09/04/2002 7:23:23 PM; IP 166.90.226.82
...that a C3AE-E crank was production in a 390 from 11/1/62 (T-Bird from 11/10/62). Yes, 390 & 427 share the same stroke, so maybe this means nothing.

The C7AE-B rods are nearly the same as the C6AE-D rods, which were used in late 427s and 428CJ/PI with 13/32 bolts. NOT the capscrew "LeMans" rods.

I do not have a listing for engineering numbers on pistons, but C3AZ-M and C3AZ-W are service part numbers for an early 427 piston. Maybe a clue, maybe not.

The block ID of 9A9 is a casting date code likely of January 9, 1969 (*maybe* 1959 or 1979). E1 I do not know.

I think you already know that the D2TE heads are NOT 427, but 1972 emission-style truck heads.

Hope this helps,
Dan
