That makes sense. He has been taking about round ports and special ordering the heads in the seventies.

Got the car !
Block # could be: 9799506, it´s really hard to see. It´s a four-bolt main block.
Intake # is 9799068 I believe.
One of the # 96 heads are dated: A 22 9
The left hand exhaust manifold # is: 478141LH

I´ll get back with pictures.

Re: RA III ?
 

Weren't the 4 bolt main blocks only available in the Super-Duty Trans Ams?

Re: RA III ?
 

Double check the block numbers 1968 400RA #9792506 . That same casting number is a RA IV if it is dated 69. The 96 heads = 19681/2 Ram Air II 400, round exh 2.11/1.77 71 cc's.

What are the two letter codes on the block below the passenger side head. See below for codes.

1964 35B,38S,44B,47S,45B,46G,50Q 421HO
1965 WG,WH,WJ,YH,YJ,YK 421HO
1966 WG,WH,WJ,YH,YJ,YK 421HO
1967 WG,WJ,Y2,Y3,XK,YH,YK,YY 428CID
1967 XS,XP,XR 400RA
1968 WI,XN,XP,XS,WU,WY,XY,XW,WS 400RA
1968 WG,WJ,YH,YK 428CID
1969 WJ,WL,YK,XG,WG,WF 428CID
1969 XP,WW,XN,WH 400RAIV
1970 YZ,WS,WH.WW,XN,XP 400RAIV
1970 WA,WG,YA,YH,XF 455CID
1971 WL,WC,WJ,WG,YA,YC,YG,YE 455CID
1972 WD,WM,YR,YE 455CID

Hope this helps https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

Skier,I believe RAII's RAIV's and 1970 RA III's had 4 bolt mains as well.

Re: RA III ?
 

Mike, it is the fourth # that is hard to see. I put the camera back there, but I´m not sure. I guess it must be a 2.
Where do I find the casting date on the block ?

Pic of intake.

Exhaust again

Re: RA III ?
 

I BELIEVE WHAT YOU HAVE IS A RAM AIR II LONG BLOCK. 2506 IS A 68 RAM AIR AND A 69 RAM AIR IV BLOCK AND SINCE YOU HAVE THE HEADS ALSO,I WOULD ASSUME YOU HAVE A COMPLETE ENGINE WITH A 70 INTAKE ON IT. I WOULD BET IT HAS A 9041 [T] CAM IN IT ALSO. NICE FIND! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Re: RA III ?
 

#9792506, I can´t find the date code. Where is it ?
