Re: need help decoding my engines
That vette 327 is probably worth a lot to a vette collector. Great heads too....

Re: need help decoding my engines
Your first engine has a casting date of June 13, 1963, so is likely 1963 model year. The second one is Nov 22, 1961, so is definitely 1962.

Re: need help decoding my engines
JJ your truck was a factory six cylinder as per the CS prefix built in atlanta, it is a half ton, i assume it is a stepside and is a 1968 model

I've been checking it. I found lists but they didn't show what the '3' meant, even my original service manual says it should have a 6 digit number between the CS & the A. The VIN in the glove box and the pillar match. There is also a model # on the option list but can't quite make out the 1st #. It could be a '1' based on the small line I can see, but could be a '2' also, since that # refers to GVW and I have HD rear spring option. I've attached a photo. It is a 68 shortbed stepside 1/2 ton. If I decode it correctly, the 3 means cab & chassis with no bed, whereas if it was a 4 it would be cab and bed. Not sure if that's right or not. Last edited by JJchamp48; 11-01-2010 at 08:03 PM.
