anyone else got a 69 with a 327 cause as far as i can find 69 came with 350 or 307 im wanting to know if this motor is the factory one... may seem like a lame question

What's your SPID say?

ed70 · 08-10-2010, 12:21 AM

if that is the sticker in the glove box... it doesnt say anything about the motor... or am i looking at the wrong thing?

if the spid (option sheet in glove box) says nothing about the engine, and the second digit of the VIN is an E, then your truck came with a 307.

ed70,
Did you run your Engine Casting Code? If its 3814660 then its a 327 (250HP Truck Version) and if you cant find it on your Glove Box Sticker then there should be a stamp on the front of the engine (Cant remember which Side but I think its on the passenger side) that you can break down and should give you all the details of the engine and the vehicle that it belongs in. If the Engine hasn't been Decked then it should be on the protrusion on the block that sticks out in front of the head. I bought my Sons 64 Shortwide and found that someone had replaced the original engine with a 69 327. Its a great engine and so far I have had no problems with it (knock on Wood).

I would still get the numbers to find out for sure. Small blocks all look quite similar visually.

i was going too but i need a can of degreaser to read it... have to bring it with me to where i have it stored next time..

Was there no SPID on the glovebox door at all or did it have one but not anything about the engine on it?
