Die casting is a metal casting process by pouring molten metal into a mould or die under pressure to produce desired shapes or forms. Mostly die castings are made by non ferrous metals such as copper, aluminium, zinc etc.
Ford began using this form of block casting in the late 1950's. They assigned each decade a letter which begins the casting number. 1950 began the coding with letter 'B'. Each subsequent decade received the following letter. The first number after the first letter is the year of that decade in which the part was modeled for. This means that your block casting number D9AE-6015-ED-18 is for a: D = 1970's 9 = 1979 A = the model is a generic full size Ford E = the part is an engine component (or the complete engine) 6015 = it is an engine base assembly piece (or, again, the complete engine) ED18 = the engineering version In 1979, Ford produced the Ford LTD, Ford Custom 500, and Ford Country Squire in the full size models. So, after all that, we know for sure that the engine is from a 1979 Ford and it's model is one of the listed.
Advertised Horsepower is--165 HP @ 3800 RPMs. I would disagree with that answer. This castg number is a VIN K from 1987-1995 and if it was a TBI application , which it probably was, it produces 210 HP
3970016 is a 4-inch bore (chevy 350) engine and is one of the best available factory castings. It features 4-bolt mains and thicker main webs. Believe it was produced from 1967 through 1979. This engine can make great hp and has a lot of nickel in it

Many manufactures make a 2.2 engine. What make are you asking about?
advantages of protrude on sand casting
There are 5 digits figures or alphabet that make a Benz C200 V6 engine. number?
First of all....absolutely not an original engine for this year. The last year for the 455 was 1976. Do some research and make sure you are actually getting a 455. The block casting codes are stamped by the distributor and the head casting numbers are on the two center exhaust ports. There are plenty of online sites that will help you decode these numbers.
