Title: Anyone know where I can buy an accurate Engine ID decal for 1970 351C?
Post by: palacekeeper on May 20, 2020, 05:36:00 PM

I spoke with Jack at deadnutson.com about this particular decal, but he does not currently make it. He did say, though, that he can make it if I can obtain a picture with the correct engine and ID codes. Does anyone have such a picture, by any chance?

The attached picture shows the decal location (gold arrow) provided in an earlier thread by Jeff Speegle.

My car is a 1970 Mach 1 with 351 Cleveland 4V - M code.

Thanks!

If auto, K609A and if manual K608A. Add a G if A/C. But the rest of the decal is still a mystery, at least to me.

Don't have nice original examples for all the details. If we did making some (have made others) would be fairly easy as shown in the other thread. Clear layer often came off from the heat, moisture, chemicals and so on in the engine compartment so few seem to survive

Thanks everyone, didn't realize this one was so difficult. In my case, I'm just trying to get the decals I can and where feasible. Thanks for all the detailed information and background!

In the past a lot of theirs have been incorrect. Hopefully all of the discussions on sites like this will help them improve the product.

Thanks for the website reference. They do have some good decals but not the Engine ID decal - at least not for my application (1970 M code 351C/4V)

That is true for a number of engines and application/combinations leaving it (for the time being) it up to the owner to make their own as covered in at least one thread on the site. Sometimes running down the correct details that need to be printed on the sticker (not many needed but oh so important) is the most difficult thing about it. Know I'm waiting to find the details for a couple of them for others here
