Az, there should be some other numbers on the sides of the block that will tell a casting date.   What do you want to know about it?

 :iagree:  And down along the oil pan rail there's a number pad.(sequence number/vin) ?  Also,drivers side,front of block,right under the head gasket may be another stamp pad with serial #.  :dunno:
