R only was for regular fuel, but this block is stamped as HP which would require premium fuel.
There was no code for RD, and there was no code for D only.
Maybe it stands for Reserch and Development?
I have never seen it before.

Thank you - was thinking that also Research and Development. Pure speculation...

Not sure vin# is there or not???
Just purchased car - will know next week.
But I think the stamp looks very authentic.
I guess thats as good a guess as Research and development.

I agree - the black scoops look fake on most cars.
But - I think on this hemi orange with the black transverse stripe and maybe black steel wheels painted orange with the black vinyl top - the black scoops may/will look goood? Can always go back to orange again.

I didn't think they came with black scoops, unless it was a black car, in which case the scoops would be gloss black...
Research what "V21" is on a '69 Super Bee with a "RAMCHARGER HOOD".
My guess is they were painted "organisol" but I DO NOT know for sure.
MASSMOPAR, when will you have the car?

Is there a VIN# on the block?
I don't know what it is, but have never liked the black scoops
