Didn't ford make a 406 back in the mid 60's for drag racing? Might be a place to start, but I doubt if any self respecting GM man would put ford badges on his truck.

Don't know of any body who makes them. But, the "6" of the 396 emblem and the "40" of the 400 emblem will providde the correct numeral shape & sizing. You just need to figure out a way to combine the two.

OK,gotcha.Great tip.I`m wanting a 383.Guess I`ll grind it out and have 383 printed in vinyl to match script,then fill w/clear resin.

I found Trimparts.com sells individual numbers chrome with white or black insets
Not cheap.... But probably the best solution, You can make any engine size. Iam going to mill out the whole black area of the stock 350 emblem smooth paint it black and apply the new numbers. |
