Ok, hope someone knows exactly what is up.
I have been looking for a good std. bore 351 4 bolt block to build for my 72 CJ vert Q code build this winter. I have the built engine that came with the car never ran and all new but I do not trust it and it is 2 bolt. He didn't put screw in studs either and I have a pair of CC 1970 heads for the build also.
Found this one and he sent me picture to verify 4 bolt and the casting number is not in the mustangtek web page. You can see the number has no year in it and it is D AE CA with a date code of 3 J 11 which I think is 1973 September 11. Remember Ford does not count the I in the months.
The mustangtek page lists the D2AE-CA as the 72-73 2 bolt main mustang & torino and D2AE-CA as the 72 CJ and HO 4 bolt block mustang and torino.
Can anyone shed any light and what do these go for now?
With a service block you can put your VIN on to make it look real, lol.
