Engine Code Search

The YT is a 4 bbl engine with 16/62 heads originally.
The YH is a 2 bbl engine with 5C/6X heads originally.

What's the date code on the 1975 400 you have?

IIRC, the "Y" codes were auto engines, and the manual tranny engines were coded "W".  I'll have to look to double-check that though -- this has been a long day... ???
