yes. that is one of several blocks used for the 302.
The casting number shows this to be a Ford 302 V8 made in 1978.
casting number 3970010 is a 350 block from 1969 - 1979 but in 1969 302 and 327 have the same casting # and im not to sure about the other #
To differentiate between a 289 and a 302 Ford engine, you can check the engine block casting numbers, as they are often stamped on the block itself. The 289 typically has a casting number of C3AE-6015 or C4AE-6015, while the 302 usually has a casting number starting with C5AE or later. Additionally, the 302 has a taller deck height, and the harmonic balancer on the 302 is often larger in diameter. Visual inspection of components like the intake manifold can also help, as the 302 typically has different mounting points compared to the 289.
The casting number will tell you what block it is, but in some cases the block will be more than one displacement. IE 302, 327, 350ci on the same casting number (chevy)
