Hey newbie, and welcome to our world. I am going to let you do some of your own research. In the FAQ section we have a section that deals with block and Ford parts numbers. Now, here is a link to the FAQ section. Your homework is to answer your own question. Hint.....it's a 66

the 289 and 302 are almost exactly the same engine, every part bolts onto both blocks

C6 is 1966, they didnt start the 302's till 68 so it would have to be a 289 (which is better imo)

Where did you get the number? Off the manifold? If so 289 and 302 can use the same manifold. You really need the number off the block down by the starter.
