| The block casting numbers are |
| By John M. Sutton - 01/19/2002 2:06:28 PM; IP 65.80.167.171 |
Under the oil filter:
E
RE10
Then, under a boss off the block, a stamped 6.
On the left side is a square aluminum serial number tag affixed to the block. This tag says:
SN xxxx RM5
Additionally, there are 3 threaded holes on the block skirts (both sides), about where crossbolts should be if it is a 427, but they are just threaded holes.
Currently, the engine mounts are only 2 bolt from the 390 originally ion the vehicle, but there are 2 additional threaded holes for the engine mount, if it were larger.Before I out the engine in, I checked the rod bearings for wear, and they were marked Ford (script) at .010.
I haven't rechecked the stroke yet, got too many other honey-do things to do.
Is this enough to pin down the identity of this block?
Thanks in advance!
