Still have clutch and pressure plate left along with the other parts if anyone needs them.The C/P is $300,washer $100,rotors $20 and PCV are $20.Also available is a NOS 289 Lemans crank for $1000
What are the numbers on the NOS PCV valve? There is more than one with the screw type head.

C4OE-6110-A is correct for the HiPo pistons after the larger intake valves were installed. Standard pistons would be C4AE-6110-L
The HiPo received the larger intake valves about April, '64.

2 – Neither block has an assembly date showing (could have been milled off) in front of the left cylinder head.
"The original/stock 289 deck height(cylinder head mounting surface to center line of crankshaft) is 8.206 +/-0.005"
Are you going to measure the deck height?

I said long blocks but maybe they were short blocks. When Ford stamped the assembly date, would it be when a short block was assembled? That could explain early dated heads ending up on later assembled short blocks. ???
Quote from rr64Go back to an earlier post above, the 4-H dated engine tag on the intake of engine 00010 makes it appear that engine came to Shelby as a complete engine.
Sorry, forgot about the tag. So the mystery continues.

We got the 1965 Cobra engine 0004 (a 5 bolt block) on an engine stand this morning, turned it over, and removed the oil pan. The pan rail is stamped 4H25B. When I get a chance I check engine 00026.
Dan,
Finding the 4H25B on that engine counters the belief that Shelby assembled those engines right? They must have been unnumbered long blocks, perhaps service replacement long blocks?
