[Tigers] Tiger Numbers

[Robert Palmer]

John,

C5AE-6015E is a '65 289 6-bolt block. Ford stopped production of 260's in
'65 and went to the 6-bolt bell housing pattern. Near the oil pan on the
front right side of the block there may be a vehicle serial no. All of this
and much, much more is in Bob Mannel's book "Mustang & Ford Small Block V8."

My Tiger engine block is date coded October 65. Is this a 260, 289 5 bolt or

289 6 bolt? How do I tell what it is? Not sure if I have the correct heads 
on this car. Where do I find the numbers for the heads and how do they 
de-code?
Thanks,
John Cossman
