You look here, at the top of this forum?

Any numbers on the heads, same site as above:

You going to use this for a vintage car? You know about the 5 bolt bell housing pattern, right?

thanks I have looked there but I'm not sure what the second set of numbers mean ? It looks like the only way to be sure is to pull a head off and check the bore.
I do know about the 5-bolt housing I was lucky enough to get two good trannys with it and located a bell housing yesterday.
I am planning on putting this in a 1927 T roadster pick-up but would like to be able to run a 5-speed behind it.
So for now I am gathering info if anyone knows a tranny combo that will work let me know.
Thanks

Please post the second set of numbers. They probably are a casting date code.
With a five bolt bellhousing you will have difficulty with a five speed transmission. A toploader, toploader overdrive or three speed electric overdrive will fit up but an adaptor will probably need to be made to suit the five bolt bellhousing to a five speed.
What transmissions do you have now?

Here's the block casting number rundown. The C4OE-6015-E marked cylinder block superseded the C4OE-6015-B late in 1964. The "E" block was also the service replacement block after its introduction.
Both are 260 blocks with 3.80" bore.

I went back and reread this thread and am not sure if you have a standard 5 bolt bellhousing or not. If you don't have one you might look on ebay, I see them there occasionally. I might have one if I ever decide which direction I want to go with my 63 Comet (260/4speed). Am thinking about a 5.0 FI/5speed.
