Engine size
I’ve posted before with no luck and would like to know if anyone can help identify the engine size of my 1970 C10. I know it’s not the stock motor. I have posted a couple pics of the block numbers and while investigating engine sizes it looks like it’s either a 283 or 327 but I can’t find anything that can tell me the correct size. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Re: Engine size
Likely 327.
https://www.mortec.com/castnum.htm And suffix code also says 327. http://nastyz28.com/gm-chevy-codes/c...s-suffix-5.php While suffix code also says 57 283 that can be ruled out if your block has side mount motormounts. |

Re: Engine size
The book says 1967, either a 302, 327, or 350. EC says 66-327. That is a bit confusing.

Re: Engine size
Thanks for your reply. It looks like geezer#99 seems to agree. The question now would be what year it actually is and what affect this would have on buying parts.

Re: Engine size
if you check other sources you’ll find EC is for 67 too.

Re: Engine size
Pick a year.
66,67 close enough. You could find the date code to narrow it down. Pics in here where to look. https://www.mortec.com/ |

Re: Engine size
geezer,
The only other stamps I can find are the I3 to the left of the casting numbers in my picture and the one I just attached which I think is just a time code. Sorry it was raining so it's not very clear. |

Re: Engine size
Likely need to clean all the paint off to find more.

Re: Engine size
The block casting numbers look like it is 67 and casting numbers for a 67 Camaro Z28 . If your other pad numbers match could have some good value .
