390 original?
By Lew - 02/02/2004 7:02:40 PM; IP 63.187.177.212
Recently purchased 1969 Mach 1 390 S. The engine Block is shown as C7MEA. Also shown on block is 30352 and 29DIF.
The heads are C8AE H and intake manifold is C8AE 9425-A. I believe the Carb is not from this engine. It is a C5AF Z.

Can anyone tell me if this engine was orignal. I am concerned about the block casting number. Other posters have shown this for a 1967 390. Did they also use these casting # in 1969?
Any idea what year ford the carburetor is from?

Thanks in advance.
