I have a 302 v8 and I have no idea what year the motor is. I think it's late 70's. Where can I find a number on the block to identify it. Once I find the number, any of you guys have a good website or a link to somewhere where I can decifer the number?

Thanks guys

OK, I looked and I don't see a number by the starter! Should I be able to see it, or do I need to pull the starter? Anywhere else it could be?
