Are you saying that all the C8FE block castings are the same?
gt350hr:
Visually , YES , except for machining variations for the specific applications.

Refresh my memory please? Didn't I get slammed for suggesting that?
gt350hr:
I don't know. The blocks ( externally) look the same. There was "some" experimentation done on the internal core patterns to produce "square bores". Those had hand scratched SK numbers in the bell housing area. Some were machined for the internal dry sump Roy showed and others were "dry deck" for Tunnel Port heads or Boss 302 heads and others for regular head gaskets,

So isn't the bare casting, in 1968 terms, a racing block casting?
