please help. i have pulled the engine out of my newly acquired 68 bird. looking at the vin stamp and the vin on car everything matches except the last number. (xxxxx3 car..xxxxxx2 engine) what does this mean? did someone on the line mix the engines up at the factory? do i have a gold mine or fools gold? it is a 1968 stamped 350. mystery to me
I would think it was a stamping error. My engine unit number is stamped with one digit wrong too (or the PHS was recorded wrong). PHS records show it as 39**** but the engine stamping is clearly 29****. The partial VIN on the engine matches the actual.
