69 boss 302 engine vin stamping
preaction:
Did all 69 302's have a vin stamped at the rear of the block ?
7Lscjracer:
Yes, the car's six digit consecutive unit number was hand stamped number by number on the assembly line, so you won't find
it on service blocks of course.
preaction:
Could a C8-B block with a 9D date be a service block ?
7Lscjracer:

It's stated in the article that C8FE-B castings were used as production and service blocks, therefore a 9D code could be for either block I would say since service blocks had to be available while production blocks were going into vehicles.
Do you not have a stamping on your block then?
preaction:
It has a C stamped as some others have on that pad but no serial number. It also has a build date stamp that fits the block time line.
