I recently bought an original hemi GTX and want to know more about the stamping pad. I do see that the engine was assembled 8-11-66 (cast 6-28-66; car built C03 - Dec. 3, 66).

C= 1967 Model year
H = Hemi
426 = Cubic inches
WT = Water Tested Block
8 = August (1966)
11 = 11th day

The 19 24 12 looks like something non typical, weather it was added at the factory or sometime after is hard to say


Overall I'm thinking that most or all of that pad might have been restamped, something just doesn't look right about it. clean off all of the paint and get a GOOD hi res photo of the pad which might show the surface of the steel a bit better and reveal possible older shallower stampings.
