Help me identify a motor

AdamM · 04-03-2004, 12:56 PM

Here is the deal, when we moved into our new house there was a old short block crammed in the back of the garage. Stuff got stacked in front of it and it was forgotten about. I recently pulled it out and discovered it is a ford v8. That is all I know. Can anyone help me in identifying what size this thing is? Any help would be great. Thanks.

Write down and post all the numbers cast into the block right above where the starter goes.

Alright, this is what I found 7322
C5AE - 6015E

I'm not sure if these are the numbers you are asking for or not, but were the only ones I saw. There is the number 14 on the opposite side of the block as the top numbers. Thanks for any help you can give me.

I'll try. IF that number is really 7B22, it's Feb 22, 1967 casting. That, coupled with the C5AE-6015-E, would make it a 1967 289cid engine.

I concur.
