Re: 71 engine stamp decode needed
If there's a stamped Vin digit sequence too, what is it?.

I believe CPD is an auto trans code.

Re: 71 engine stamp decode needed
The chart I listed shows this: CPD 1971 Chevelle 454 365 Mt LS-5 , 72 shows AT.
Take a look at the chart I listed. It may be wrong?

Re: 71 engine stamp decode needed
The Nasty site listing as shown indicates both CPA and CPD were MT codes for '71..
Considering the casting date it's probably a '71 but get the Vin sequence if it's there and count 8 digts back from the end for the model year also the plant digit and last six may help indicate which car line it was originally in.. ~ Pete

Chevrolet by the Numbers shows CPD as T400 LS5 in Chevelle, Monte, and Passenger cars in 71.
