Answer
Stanton ;
  Are you giving me the right no#s.
the nos are on the right side of the lower front of the engine / under the lip of the front of the right head. . I looked and as far as 1970 and lower it did not show anything. so I will look for other nos can you see if the no#s you gave me are right.and they should be stampedinto the block .
and what year is it in now ?
