D = 1970s
1 = 1971
V = Lincoln car line, where the 460 was born as pillow barge power
E = Engine engineering group.

6015 is the basic part number.

A2B may have been revision codes.

In '71 you should have a 10.310 deck height.

There is a date code on the block somewhere, looks like "0A10" or "5K12".

A garden variety 429/460 block.

How are the bores?
