Mark,

Why did you jump all over me in the other thread for saying that VIN showed the motor as coming from a 1966 Ford Galaxie? Here is your response in that thread. The D2AE block casting was used on most all of the 351 W engines in 72.

As for the other part I was wrong and admitted it. Why can't you do the same.

Ron

That VIN will do nothing to I.D. your car and in fact could be a problem if the authorities discover that you do not have a 1966 Ford Galaxie convertible.
