1969 351w serial number?
 
Hey Everyone,
I've been told by some people that a 1969 351 Windsor does not have a serial number... only a casting number. Then I saw a picture of a 1970 block with what appeared to be a serial number. What's the story on these older blocks... serial number or not?

I only found the casting numbers on mine. Jim

Casting number above the starter

Are you sure it wasn't a Boss 302 block they had the VIN #s on the top of the block behind the intake..
Or did the 351W Shelbys have the VIN#s stamped on the block like the early cars?

It may have been a Boss 302 block, I'm not sure. I just saw a partial picture. I'm purchasing a rebuilt 351w (C9OE-6015-B2) and I didn't know if there were other numbers I needed to find for the DMV.

According to my Ford Engine Parts Interchange book, your number is for a 69 351W. I think you are getting a good block.

HHHmmmm this is our same problem we have the paper work to go to the highway patrol but when the machine shop sold us the block they didnt write down any ##rs off the block to idenifey it, going back to them shouldnt be a problem to get a new reciet with casting# on it .this wasnt a donor project we sorced all our prts from them.im glad ive known them a long time nearly 30 years

52chevyred,
Can you date the production year for my 351W engine in my Backdraft. The engine was built by the Engine Factory. The casting # on the engine block is E4AE-6015-FA-7.

Jim Werth 09-17-2007 10:20 PM

William, it should be a 1984.

It should be a 1984. I've been busy lately, so it took me longer to reply.
