need your help again guys! I recently purchased some parts and need to know what they are. The short block was supposed to be a 66 PI but I'm not so sure now. The block is C7ME-A with "WI" above the cast date "8A26". It has a "C" marking on the left rear next to cam plug. Rods are C7AE-B. Bore is 4.13 and shows very little wear. (no ridge at top of cylinder) Have other parts that came with the deal (heads,intake,holley carb, cast exhaust manifolds,flywheel, etc.) and also have these numbers available. My suspicion is that this may be a CJ short block. Heads are C8OE-N but one has cast date "9K17" and the other "8G20" or "8C20". The 9K head has two piece valve retainers and the other has one piece. I'm almost sure the heads are not a matching pair but are the retainers correct for the cast dates? Thanks for any help and Merry Christmas to you and yours.----Gary
