I do know it is a 460. I was just wondering if this decal gave an indication as to what year. The intake has the number D4VE stamped on it. The heads are D3VEs.

The one on top. I can make out the one similar to the bottom one just a little. I can see 460ci and the noted rpm with and without AC. It is located on the driver's side. I was hoping for the one on the passenger's side like the picture you posted first. Thanks.

I was hoping it would help. The heads are D3VEs and the intake is stamped D4VE and I think the block is stamped DIVE(?). I think the D3VE heads started in 73' but that is all I know/think. Does any of this help id the year?
