I have the truck and was researching the casting number on the Block I have the Chevrolet In-Line 6 Cylinder Power Manual By Leo Santucci and in it it lists the block casting numbers. Mine is 3994257 the only 399XXXX listed is a 3994258 no 3994257 anyone verify that I have a 292 in my truck? the only options this truck had was it has a positrac rear end it was a service truck for a gas company has 64K miles.

Darn I was hoping it was a 292 Where did you get this info evidently the one in the Santucci book is a little lacking!
