I think that should take care of it. On the FE's they can be hard to read and upside down when in the car. Date code tells the exact year/month/day of the casting. Casting number itself decade and year. There are some quirks to reading date codes which can be confusing. FWIW both the Genesis and Pond FE blocks are cast with a 65 date code and casting number.

Don I'm down in Fairfield. If you guys need any help shoot me a pm. I'd be glad to help out.
