Re: CE 060XXX TO318 9654 block . . .
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: bbbentley</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Makes one wonder if that T0318 E(T?) was put there by the owner or dealer upon replacing with this engine? That assembly date and so forth might have been on the old engine (original) and the owner felt inclined to or believed those numbers needed to be transferred to this engine? EI is a 67 396 Camaro, ET is a 67-68 Chevelle #. </div></div>
That stamping definitely looks 'home brewed' and the theory described above makes sense. As for time from casting to assembly...while 3-4 months or less may be the norm...I have seen 69 cast #854 blocks with late June/70 assembly dates.
Did we ever figure out the 4 bolt vs. 2 bolt question?
