In that time frame there were all kinds of Ford engines experimental to stock Fairlane. Most of course were standard Ford vehicle engines. Blocks and head had casting dates and engineering numbers. Production blocks had the day they were machined and integrated into a "block assembly" stamped into them. Engines assembled in the Cleveland engine plant had the day of assembly stamped into them. The only easy identification for production engines before early 1964 was a paper sticker attached on the assembly line for quick reference. In early 1964 Ford started adding little aluminum tags for service departments to read. Alas, most paper stickers and or aluminum tags often got defaced or removed somewhere along their time lines.
