speedracer4406 OP member S Joined: Feb 2007 Posts: 25 Ontario	I have a 440 block that I am trying to decode the information on the block pad. It reads F440 A 10 21HP. Can anyone explain these number and letters to me or point me in direction where I can find this information? Thanks for any help.

pishta super stock P Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 893 Tustin, CA	is there an M code anywhere on the trans or oil pan rail VIN (if that even exists)? Or is there a P indicating Premium fuel anywhere? Dont even know if the 6 pack took Premium fuel. I dont think that info is always on the block, but T/A motors have this ..

The VIN# stamped into the oil pan rail would have to match a known Six Pack car. The blocks are the same, so you would have to disclose the full number so people can check to see if they know of the matching car.
