Engine code ID
Ok, after searching for 20 minutes so I wouldn't have to ask this question here is the question.
Code stamped on the pad at the front of the engine is V0517CGC, what is it and if there is a thread on this where is it. Thanks

Re: Engine code ID
Thanks Howard, this was suposed to be the original engine in the truck I just bought, guess it's the right year anyway. The question about the trucks coming with a 350 2bbl from the factory is still not answered since this is apparently not the original engine.

Re: Engine code ID
Thanks Dave,
Would this not be a good thing to have in the faq section?

Re: Engine code ID
If it was original engine code would start with a "T"--cars are "C"

Re: Engine code ID
Ok ok a little unclear--if engine came in a truck the code will began with a "T" such as tch, tgj, etc. If it came in a car the code begins with a "C".
