novaman Posted October 16, 2001 Share Posted October 16, 2001 the engine code stamped on the block should be letter(for plant) # #(for month) # # (for assembly day 1 or 2 digit) letter(s) (for suffix code 1 or 2 letters)<BR>The suffix for a 348 CID. 350 HP. Manual trans. w/ 3-2bbls is:FH <BR>a 280hp version suffix is: FA<BR>Those codes are only good for 1961. Anything else is wrong year engine.<P>As for SS option, I'm no help. Sorry.
