Engine Date Code for 1967
Short answer: The engine build-date code is on the top surface around the distributor hole — a letter plus three digits: the letter is the month (A = Jan, B = Feb, …), the next two digits are the day, and the last digit is the year. Example: B157 = Feb 15, 1967.
The letter “I” was sometimes skipped (so it wouldn’t be confused with “1”), but not at every factory. From September on, engines were dated for the next model year. For authenticity (and picky judging), find a block dated within about three months before the car’s build date — engines weren’t left lying around longer than that.
