Afternoon guys!
New guy here doing a little investigating into my latest project. As you can tell by my username what I’m researching.
Here is a picture of my block numbers. I know its a 440hp motor. What does the rest mean?

D440
1 22HP2

D = 1968
440 = cu in
1 = January
22 = the day
HP = built to high performance spec
2 = second shift
 
Check the bell housing lip for a vin #
 
Keep in mind, the 'D'/1968 designates the model year of the car it went in...so the engine casting date could be '67. Sometimes that confuses folks.
