    Engine Identification Code

    Hi all,
    Forgive my ignorance, I am new to NCRS.
    I received my membership package, so I am filling out the info on the "Glove Compartment File" as best I can.
    I have a 1972 Coupe, base 350/200, 4-speed. My engine has two numbers stamped on the engine pad on the right side of the motor. One includes the partial VIN and the other I believe is the manufacturing date, etc. Which of these is considered the "Engine Identification Code"?
    Also, where might I find the Harrison radiator number and date code. My radiator does have a somewhat indiscernible white stamp on it. Any help is appreciated. I'm sure I'll have other questions as I try to locate the other casting/date codes on the car.

    Thanks!

    Brian,

    Welcome!

    Any chance that you have the latest 70-72 Judging Guide? Your questions - and a lot more - would be answered there.

    The Engine ID code is the three-letter code at the end of the second sequence. For your car it is likely CKW. The full code is likely VXXXXCKW, where the X's are a date code.

    The radiator date is on the upper left (driver's side) just to the right of the water outlet, assuming you do not have AC. It is something like 72C.
