And the 100,000 post goes to:

7M = D9AZ-6303-C / Fits 1973/79 351W / 1980/86 is 7MA

Marked with Ford engineering ID number: C9OE-E .. Harmonic Balancer = C9OZ-6316-A 1969 351W ONLY.

Casting numbers (c/n) don't mean diddly squat, because they cannot be cross referenced to actual part numbers.

Just because the c/n has a certain c/n prefix, that does not mean that's what the block was first used, or is the only year it was used.

Case in point, your supposed 1974 block was actually used 1973/78: D5OZ-6010-A.

The same 351W pistons were used 1973/79.

How do you know the rods are from a 302?

R U sure the timing cover is marked C9JE? J = industrial engine.

Look again, could it be C9UE?

If so, that's the timing cover used 1969/72 (essentally thru 1979, cuz Ford changed the part number). It's also the same as a 302 and late 1965's & 1966/68 289's.

The timing cover (undergoing several p/n changes) was used 1969/78 and on 1979's without EEC...this is not the timing cover you posted the ID number from, this is the one marked C9UE

Congrats BKW. What does he win?

Oh yeah but if we delete all of Chris' useless posts we still got about 7,000 more to go! LOL
 
I say BKW get's a free... alternate email address for his account.

Or something.

Go for the "or something"......

I do not think he wants an E-mail account. He does not post his on any of the forums (as far as I know). I think he allowes the PM feature on some sites. Not sure of that one.

I have his private E-mail that he uses. :)
