Hey Phil,
  Since it's a 69 302 head, according to Bob Mannel's book, that E is just the suffix to the  whole casting number (C9OE-E). Hope this helps.

Dave

 ahh that  is  reasonable

Contact Roy in the posts on this subject he has extremely detailed drawings and modifications to make a c4 for a HiPo

Thanks, Steve. However, you were also a big help on this project.

Can a C4 be built with all the parts that make it a HI PO?

aboss4tg, Check out the GT350H section of my website for a narative of how I converted a plain jane C4 out of a '67 Mustang to serve duty in my GT350H. Much credit for this information goes to Bob Mannel for his amazing book "Mustang & Ford Small Block V8, 1962-1969" (RPM Press, 2014) as well as others that are listed in my atricle. Link to my website is in my signature.

I would say that a 1966 transmission is the best to start out with as there are some minor differences between that one and the 1967 version I used. If you are using a transmission out of a '65 or '66, the shift kit from Transgo will be different than the one I used. Good luck and please let us know how it goes. You may contact me privatley if you think that will help.

First 2 pics are a '66 Dearborn C4.
Last 2 pics are a '65 Dearborn 4 speed.
Same clip.

For clarity, that's the clip that's used under the car on the trans crossmember reinforcement on the unibody.  The toe-board one is different.

so the 8G23 indicates the part was cast on July 23, 1968 (or potentially 1978)

the "E" in a Ford casting number generally indicates that the part belongs to the Engine engineering division
