Engine decode?
 

Can anyone tell me what I have here? I know it's a 305. But wondered if I could get any more info for ordering parts. I looked up the casting # but can't seem to find it. I found 14088 but not 14084? Any help is as always appreciated. The number is 14084766

Look a little closer.
I think it’s 14094766.
Which makes it found here.

If you get the suffix code off the pad in front of the pass side head you’ll narrow it down even more.
Look here.

look at the pad on the front left side, then gooogle nasty z28 engine decoder. It will give year, model hp, etc.

once you get the code off the pad in front, use the three letter suffix and look it up on thi page - links are about 3/4 the way down the page and are grouped into alphabetical links.

Thanks all... do I need to remove the alternator or valve cover to see it. I looked but don't see it. Total noob... sorry

It might be painted over. it is on the front of the block where the head attaches. it sticks out a little.

I swung the alternator out of the way. This is what I have.
