1969 Dodge Charger SE Value? Found in Backyard.

You can easily tell if it is a 440 or 383. The 440 has a large machined stamping pad adjacent to the distributor. The 383 does not have this pad. That block casting number is the same as my '67 440.

Thank you very much for the information, I will check it out when I go back next week.

I got the numbers off the engine 2536430-6 date 4/67 I looked up those numbers and it appears to be a 440? Is that correct? He told me he thought it was a 383 but now I think he is wrong?

To the left of the distributor is a flat machined area that is stamped and should read "C 383" (C for 67). Near the bottom of the same area if a high performance engine, stamped "HP". Below is an example but of a none HP.

Yep. Good luck. And just an fyi, that hole just above the stamped area is where the distributor goes.
