Corvette???? My pickup has the same casting number and is original to the truck. Those heads as far as valves go could be 2.02 int/1.6 ex, 1.94 int/1.5 ex, or 1.72 int/1.5 ex. Which actually wouldn't matter if a crack happens to appear in between them.

I already answered on the double post in the engine & drivetrain board.

I found the info I posted on this web page
http://www.chevy-camaro.com/chevy-ca...gine-codes.asp

It shows Corvette???? as a use for the block . The valve size I posted is what they show to have left the factory with . They dont show 1.72/1.5 as a factory offering so they probably arent 1.72's . The stamping is what I always use to determine exactly what it came from since many blocks were used in several different applications . I was just trying to give a little info on the subject . Didnt mean to step on any toes ! Frank

Those valve sizes I stated above, are factory sizes with the 624's. Unfortunately not all data references online are 100% correct. "Corvette" just makes it worth more. Anyway, you didn't step on anyone's toes.
