Question SCJ and CJ

Does anyone have the complete list of casting numbers on SCJ and CJ blocks? I am looking to find any block with 4 bolt mains on 2,3,and 4 journals. (SCJ had 'em on #1 as well)Thanks a bunch!
Oh, and is a D10Z 6015 A2A a 4 bolt? Curious...
What was the most common 460 block used in 70's Ford trucks?

Ok....you could try to find a late model truck 460 block. These had the 4 bolt mains. The Boss, and CJ blocks also had the 4 bolt mains to them. Casting numbers to look for....

CJ, SCJ, and PI..... D0OE-B or D0VE-A
Boss..................... C9AE-E
Truck block........... D7TE OR D8TE

Easiest way to tell....pull the oil pan off.

Hmmm, didn't see my engine in the list. My '76 Supercab has the casting D1VE 6015 A2A, and as far as I know, it is original, but I can't be certain, as the previous owner knows nothing about it!
Just wondering if this was a common block in the trucks...

DIVE-A2A is the most common early 385 block, cast from 1971 through 1978.

CJ/SCJ were all DOVE-A and DIVE-AA blocks. Both blocks were finished in 2 and 4-bolt versions. These are the only 385 non-boss blocks produced with thick main bearing webs suitable for production 4-bolt main bearing caps.

All SCJ were 4-bolt mains, CJ were primarily 2-bolt with some 4-bolt. '70/71 PI were CJ engines. The '72-74 PI block was standard
production 6015-A2A.

I'm not aware of any truck block being produced with 4-bolt mains.

Several companies produce 4-bolt main bearing conversions for DIVE-A2A and other thin-webbed 385 blocks. Users state that the conversions will handle 750-850hp.

Beyond that, you want the A-460 performance block.

D0VE-A and D1VE-AA are the casting number for both CJ and SCJ blocks. SCJ had the 4 bolt mains on 2,3 and 4th journals. SCJ did not have a 4 bolt cap on number 1 journal.

C9AE-E is 429 Boss with 4 bolt mains on 1,2,3 and 4.

Oh yeah, right sorry, the street Boss block had that 4 bolt touch on number one...
So anyway, being that mine is a D1VE 6015 like George mentioned, isn't that a PI block?
I was only guessing it was 'A2A' at the end, but it could be just the 'A'. (I couldn't see past the 'A' with the starter in the way)

Actually the D1VE-A2B is the most common block from late 71 early 72 till 1979.

From all I can tell, the A2A was 10.310" deck and the A2B was the 10.320" deck height block.
