- Confidence
- documented
- Correct value
- The 1974 Chrysler parts catalog places the 318/360 serial pad at the left front of the block below the cylinder head, the manual-transmission identifier below centerline on the front right side, and the automatic identifier on the left oil-pan rail; production-installed engines and transmissions also carry a VIN derivative.
- Where to check
- Engine serial pad, manual-transmission front right case, automatic-transmission left oil-pan rail, and the individual car's VIN, fender tag, broadcast sheet, and scheduled-build evidence
