Picked up another Cleveland engine today. Out of a 71 xr7. Here are the numbers from the intake tag, anything special or just another 351C 4V? 351C 71-3 K27 K612JG.
Haven't had the chance to pull it apart yet and get any of the other numbers. TIA.

From the aluminum tag on the intake manifold just in front of the carb.

I'm only just starting to get into 351C 4Vs, but what do you mean by special? By my understanding (unless you're talking Boss), that just means high/low compression and 2/4 bolt mains, doesn't it?
The 71s had the highest compression, and sometimes had four bolts I believe. And a 71 could be deemed more desirable certainly than a 73 CJ - even though a CJ sounds special.
Ain't that right?
