FE block 66-429 casting
Years ago I was given an old camper with low miles on it. It was a late 60's model. This thing was as ugly as they come so I scrapped it and kept the engine. I was told that it was a 360 engine so I figured since it ran so good I would save it for a spare for my trucks. I was looking at it the other day and noticed on the back of the block behind where the flywheel would be was cast 66-429. It looks like a 360 or 390 to me is it possible that it is a 429?

That's a foundry mark, doesn't mean diddly. It cannot refer to a 1966 429, because there was no such thing as a 429 until 1968 (ditto 460).
