A hot tip for where the identifying numbers on a Mopar big block can be found



                   
 
 How do you identify these engines? Just to the right of the distributor is a bit of smooth steel which has a number code stamped in it. The first line has a letter for the year (D = 1968) and the three digits for displacement (e.g. 440). The date — month and day — are on a line below, . Isometimes with an HP denoting High Performancef you don’t find “tag,” try the passenger side of the block, below the distributor, which is where it sits on B engines.
 
This email, I hope, contains the best info on how to find the block numbers.  I really hope it helps you out, you Mopar loving friend.  The only thing I don't know is if this info is good for 1962 413s, but even though the Max Wedge 413 was discontinued in 1963 before they started production of the '63 426 cars, they still built truck engines up to at least 1964 and possible 1965.  My father's '64 New Yorker had a 413 but no doubt it didn't have the high nickle truck block.  You have got to get the right block if you are going to run it hard.
