Exclamation Calibration Code for Vacuum line diagram

I'm needing a calibration code for my '79 F150 4x4 with auto-trans C6. I have a 351M with a stock 2bbl carburetor.

Thanks!

I had located this site, but didn't know which diagram applied to me. How do I determine the correct calibration code and corresponding diagram to follow?

1 out about 500 older ford engines will not have the calibration code tag. They either fall off or the lettering ink deteriotes and unreadable.

Question

Well, there was a sticker on the left valve cover in the front. It had been painted over and when I chipped the paint off, the lettering was not there. Must have faded. What now? Any way to identify the calibration?

There are only about 6 different ones on that site so look for similarities on your engine.

7-72-R11 is the matching code for the 78 for your application of that helps
