Bob Gaines,

Thank you very much for the reply. That is exactly the type of information I was hoping for!

The block in my car is stamped with the SFM serial number, not the ford VIN. I'm thinking the person who replaced the block knew enough/cared enough to not try and fool anybody, but still put something there to match the car with the block even though the date codes do not match.

thanks Bob!
