Just picked up a 440. Looked at the pad and it said 444 E and 5 15.
I just figured it was a 69 -440. Then I looked at the block. seems it says 3698830-440-8 and 4-12-73. OK I found out the E on pad stands for cast crank but it sure looks like a forged one to me. Can anyone confirm it by my pictures.
Thanks

Perfect.. Thanks guys.. I figured it was a forged one from the pics in the tech section search. Looks like it has had some balancing done on. Good I can use my auto/and converter I have here
