I have a 455 in my car, Aluminum intake W-455 part number 406115, Head casting number E, engine casting number by the power steering bracket is 30M332__6, the last 3 numbers are hard to read, any ideas what year this engine is, Thanks Phil from Milwaukee 72, 442

 

It's a 1970 block.

3"0"M332_6

 

And it has '70 442 heads 'E'.

 

What makes them 442 heads? All 455 heads except W30 heads were E castings in 1970. The only way to tell if they MIGHT have been on a 442 would be to check the size of the valves, and even that is not 100% as all Toroandos got the large valve heads.

 

Yup, you're right, brain fart on my end.

 

No biggie. Just don't want to confuse the guy.

 

Thanks for the help, any one know if the Rochester had stud or bolts to holsd it to the Aluminum W-455 intake, just took off the Holley, and has 4 stud which do no fit the Rochester, also anyone ahve a diagram of where the vacuum lines go, thanks Phil

 

The Qjet uses bolts - long ones in the front and short ones in the back.
