That is a 302 or 289 in the ad. Definitely not a Cleveland. Where did you find that code/stamping?

Here is the engine VIN. According to what I've been able to find on the web a 0M number is a 351C or an Australian 302.
I suppose it could be a 1980 302. Would a 1980 block be stamped like a 1970 block?

I found reference to assembly plant "M" being in Mexico. They did start producing cars in 1970, so it could be a Mexican block 302 from 1970.

[sigh] I can be such a putz at times. I forgot that the 2nd character on the engine VIN is the assembly plant, not the engine code.
Thanks for the subtle reminder, Steve.
If you'd gone with me I wouldn't have made that mistake!!!

Unfortunately, I've been hanging out at home playing nurse, because Deb fell and broke her ankle in two places. Needed surgery to install a plate and 7 screws.

My guess is a 1970 engine. My GNS VIN was 8R01J12346. On the block it was 8R123143. So it the number zero not the letter O. A was a Ford assembly plant in Atlanta Georgia. It looks like a double stamped A to me
Sorry to here about Deb!!! The ability to walk is highly underrated!! Nurse Steve to the rescue!!

I definitely have new respect for people that choose to be caregivers as a career.

No Kidding!! I could not think of a harder job! And many times the patient is not that patient! I have been on crutches many times in my adult life. It sucks.... Especially if you have stairs! |

And we do have stairs! She's pretty much stuck to the top floor and I have to keep reminding her that I work better when asked instead of ordered.
