Default yyy on my block?

i recently bought a stock 302 block off my buddy, it came out of an ex (real) chp car. i was reading about the mexican blocks and all that other stuff on other threads and people were saying that 302 blocks had an "xxx" on the blocks.

on my block i have "yyy" stamped on it........does this mean anything special?

thanks for the info, i know this may be a stupid question

It's a stock roller block. They said either XXX or YYY.

It will say hencho en mexico. But they didn't put mexican blocks in ssp cars. They are older, non-roller blocks.

They've also got two bumps on the front of the block.
