Are these casting dates too close?(long)
By Chris67 - 10/01/2005 8:40:40 AM; IP 65.31.12.14
Hi all, I have questions about the originality of the 390 block that came with my mustang GT. I did do a search but i am still not sure. I think the block may be too close to the cars final assembly.
The car rolled off the line Dec 28 66. 1 day ahead.
Casting dates are as follows

Block =6M22 (C6MEA-A)
Intake=6M22 (C6AE 9425-8)
Head1=6L26 (C7AE-A)
Head2=6M6 (C7AE-A)
Dist=6L20
RH Manifold=6M80 (C70E 9480 C)
LH Manifold=6M19 (C7OE 3481A)

I can tell from the dates that this motor was probably assembeld with these parts...but did it belong to my car? Seven days form casting to assembly seems awful short.
Thanks in advance for all your help.
This thread, so far...
