i just had a buddy give me an old ford engine block that he says came from a 71 torino. can anyone tell me how to id this.? the main engine block number is d1ve 6015 a2b. inside one of the heads is a 6h16. also have a d5ve 9425 a3d somewhere on the block. im not very mechanical and really appreciate any help or a website to figure out what i ve got before i sell it. thanks. my email is Mtallison66@live .com

D1VE 6051 A2B sounds like a 429/460 block to me. Im not sure about the cyl. head castings.
