Re: Broaching
Looks to me like it has been machined.

Re: Broaching
I was the first guy to pull the pan off the thing...standard bore,factory pistons...can't see them machining the deck and missing the numbers...never been re-stamped unless it was done in the 60's

Re: Broaching
Did anyone give a crap about an original stamping on a 409 in the 70's ? I doubt it...you could still get crate 409's then too...pan has never been off until last night !! Unless someone took a 6 inch sanding pad and gave it a cleaning. The "high" spots in the stampings are a bit shiny...

Re: Broaching
Letters look crip Bob from where I'm sitting and no machine line before the numbers, but I'm a couple of states away----I'd say nay on the machining ---But the cylinders looked bored too hell--

Re: Broaching

Re: Broaching
Could it have required additional machining at the factory, before the numbers were ever put on it?
