The Nasty site listing as shown indicates both CPA and CPD were MT codes for '71..

Considering the casting date it's probably a '71 but get the Vin sequence if it's there and count 8 digts back from the end for the model year also the plant digit and last six may help indicate which car line it was originally in..

OK, so I am NOT up to speed with 71 part #'s....

What would be the correct Heads, Intake, Distributor #'s etc etc that would make this a correct engine again?

My references show CPD as a '71 454/365hp with TH400.
