"...I've got what I was told is a replacement block in a 61 Rampside
thatdoesn't have anything stamped on it. The pad is devoid of anything. Though
someone who is knowledgeable had a look and said it was set up as a
61...Mike Clark...Stockbridge, Georgia."
The block is what was termed a Universal Replacement Block (not a crate
engine). Universal Replacement Blocks were offered for either car or FC use
(hence the hole for the rear, FC-use, oil filler spout. If used in a car,
the FC oil filler spout hole was typically plugged (by the user) with a freeze
plug. Also, the pad for the block ID numbers was left blank; and, if
desired, the installer/owner could stamp in the numbers of the removed,
original block (this is what I did with my, since sold, 64 Spyder).
