Engine Block indentification

Okay... (haven't opened your link yet... but reading your message, now I'm curious... b/c my block is blue (and it is CLEARLY not re-done). I tried for my life to get a look at the freeze plugs earlier but I just cant. Too cramped - headers in the way, just can't see. I'll pull out the wifes car tomorrow and jack her up and take a look...
So, no 5.0 block that was blue... boy did my stomach just turn (in a good way lol)

If your wondering if you have a boss , you need to remove the starter and look for the block numbers. 1969 is C9ZE C8FE 1970 is CDOZE-B
That's the only real way to tell if its a Boss . Yes the Boss had screw in type freeze plugs but those could also be added to a Windsor block by someone later on in its life.

Nope all the v8's have 3 plugs along the sides. If you think you have a 351 the intake is a lot wider on the 351 than the 302

dawson1112 is 100% correct on this as far I know.
Got to remember that guys rebuilding things are apt to paint anything any color.
When I raced MOPARS (25years) I needed some paint real bad and a Ford friend of mine gave a couple cans of Ford blue, worked real good,LOL........
