Help with casting numbers
I have come across a bunch of engines on a property clean up job. There are 3 Ford engines and two of them I was able to figure out as 351 from this site. The third engine I can't find. I think it must be a 385 series. I'm pretty sure that I didn't find the block casting number now.
What I have is
Block, these munbers were down on the side of the block. V, E, 1 or I,
19DIF
And the suffix code I imagine because it was stamped on a
machined surface on the side of the block. 8 D 305
Heads are C8AE-H
Intake is C8AE 425-F
I can look again tomarrow at the block for the casting number by where the starter bolts and check the crank for the 2U or 4U. Yes, I have been searching.
So is it scrap metal, or is it any good for a street engine for my 58?
Thanks for any info.
