So are you alluding to my vin stamping being counterfeit, wouldn't they have used the correct vin # if that's the case?

Not absolutely sure but even had my daughter look because my eyes suck!

Those previous numbers were stamped by the distributor, here's the #'s from the block:

Ok because of beatersRus's last post with very specific placement (thanks beater!) I took another look and damned if I didn't find numbers. Here's what it looks like: E383 7 8 2 P?

Inspection certificate receipts from '69 to '81, pretty cool.

Just want to thank everyone for trying to help me verify the #'s on my engine. I looked again and just can't see anything around the distributor. I'm not usually a quitter but I'm starting to obsess over this and I guess it's time to just enjoy my car wether it's #'s matching or not. Hey at...

Does anyone have a good pic where this stamping area is near the distributor? I either don't have it or just cant find it with these blind eyes!

Can you tell me where to find the casting date?

Not sure how that matters in relation to the question?

Only thing I can find as a novice that it is in fact a 383

Numbers from block:

Thanks, I will look for those numbers.

Is there date codes on the engine and if so where?

Title vin, dash vin & radiator support vin all the same, engine stamp one digit off :(
