Question - Block Numbers

[LeftCoast32]

The engine in my '66 has some numbers I can not find anywhere. Any help decoding them and where you found it would be great. Thanks in advance!

Block Casting Number - 849852 (my mistake - missing a number 3849852)

Stamped Block Number - F05 T9M

Looks like I was missing the 3 in front of the casting number.

1964-68 3849852 283 195 220 2 car & truck



The front stamping is not coming up as anything still. F05 T9M is the best I can tell of the stamping.

This is the site where I figured out what my engine was, but could not find your.

Take a look.

Thanks for looking! I checked the same site earlier. Mine is a '66 K15 Cab and Chassis, so I wonder if the numbers were not as well documented.

F05 T9M is what is stamped into the pad on the passenger side front block surface forward of the head.
