Quote: This is a bit confusing and does hurt the head.
I'm not sure what Furyman is saying about the E86 and E63 and orange paint. If it was a joke...I missed it. But I will laugh if I ever do get it. The only reason I brought the 440 into the discussion was its lettering system to aid in VIN id as well as a possible engine id. for 383 is easier to understand then the 383, since the M and the E62 were excluded for a reason that is beyond me .
We were discussing the 383 4bbl and its oranage paint to help us identify in one of a few different ways if it is a genuine HP engine in '70. Having an HP stamp is an obvious identifier. JDRoadRunner here said '69 & '70 engines weren't stamped HP. Is he correct?
After reading this diatribe I have come to the conclusion;NO ONE CARES!!!! Enough already, it's a cool car welcome to Moparts, but for the love of God relax.......and please sell it and buy a camaro and join another board.
