The 361 was the standard engine in the 880. 2-15 is the build date February 15, 1963. Sometimes they seem to be stamped oddly though. Here's the stamping from a '63 Newport I looked at a while back. I'm guessing it was 361, and the seller thought it was a 440. Maybe it was a Canadian car, but I'm not sure. TC1- 22404C 7138756-S2020016.JPG (52 downloads)
