: : Anyone know where casting codes are usually located on 302's? The only stamping I saw was just above where the starter is mounted - the code
: : EOAE-D3O is stamped there-is that refering to anything? Trying to find out some info about my motor. The source I got the motor from knew only that it was from the early 80's - maybe 80 thru 83.
: E0 means 1980. The E=80's while the 0 equals the first of each decade. 81 would then be E1, 82 would be E2 etc. So your engine is a 1980 casting. It is very common to the early 302's.
Thanks-
Any ideas on what the rest of that code means?
