I know this is a few months old thread, but I found a C7AF-11001-C starter with a date 8E6.  What engines were the these starters used for?

That would be for a 68 302 4 speed if the case matched the nose. You can't completely trust the metal stamp on the case because many rebuilders don't use a lot of care keeping the correct case and nose cones parts together.

Thanks Bob. I was needing one for my 67 coupe 289. I think I'm going to get it rebuilt 👍🏻

The C7AF-C is for 390/427s.  A C7AF-F and possibly a C7AF-D are for the small block manual trans, according to the MPC.

Chris is correct . Sorry I must have misread the post . It should have a 3 ear nose cone for a big block. If it has 2 ears then it would be a example of a rebuilder using various parts to make up a working unit regardless of application stamped on the barrel case.
