Pantera Engine Blocks

What was the block used in the Pantera before the CJ's? Are they 4 bolt blocks?

Are all of the CJ 351's with the D2AE-CA blocks 4 bolt? That was the original specification on that engine.

Apparently the 4v 351c's were only 2 bolt blocks?

I don't have the chart on the Ford assembly line ID numbers on the engines. Does anyone here have that?

These would correlate with the "computer print out build sheets" left in the cars of US production and would match the  "decal" (for lack of a better term) stuck on the valve covers so the assembly line could identify the correct engines to go into the specified chassis'.

I do know that there are 2 bolt D2AE-CA blocks but my understanding is the CJ's only got the 4 bolt. I know that there is a 4v that is not a CJ and they seem to have 2 bolt blocks.



This picture I believe is of a '74 CJ id tag.
