Where is it stamped on the block that tells what year my engine is? I'm going to be rebuilding my engine soon and I need to know what year it is. I was told at one time that my engine is a '69 351w but I want to find out for sure. I have the heads off now. Does anyone know what '69 351w pistons look like.
Also, will that tag tell me what vehicle it came out of.
BTW, I will also need to know how to decifer the tag when I find it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
