Need help with Block ID - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

grc53 · 11-30-2016, 10:28 AM

Can some one identify the block that I have in my truck. The truck is a 1953 3600 but I think the block is not original to the truck. The color of the block is a orange/red. The number stamped just behind the dist is:
00097832 F55X
There is also a number behind the starter:
J224
I have looked on the common websites and can not id the block. I would like to know the following plus any other info that you might be able to provide from the ID#.
Is this a 235 and if so is there any specifics about this engine?
What year was it built and where?
What color should a 1953 block be?
