c8 = 68
A= Fairlane
M= mexican

6015 = engine block
B= second revision

looks like it is likely a 68 302 mexican block out of a fairlane

a mexican block will say "hecho en mexico" in the lifter valley.

and if "M" means mexico, does that mean everything with an E as in E7TE mean it was made in England?

and E8SE is an 88 Thunderbird engine part

Thanks guys! Have been meaning to do something with these for months now --- moved them around today and got the #'s for ID.

The "M" block is a good thing?
Is the T-bird block anything worth using or sell/trade it?

if it says Hecho en mexico in the valley they are stornger than regular blocks.

if its a holman moody, then im sure its worth money

no e does not mean england but all mexican blocks had the M designation as well as the lifter valley designation
