D=1970, and the 1=71, first letter is decade, second number is the year in that decade, O=Fairlane which the small block was orginally designed for. E= engine dept.
: The numbers on my 302 block start off 'D10E'. A friend of mine deems to think that this idicates that it's a '71 block. Can anyone out there confirm this? Thanks. John B.
