Definitely a 400ci. the three below are from looking up the engine suffix code (TLS) at this site:
http://www.nastyz28.com/sbchevy/spcode8.html 1975 TLS 400 conv.cab U LF4 175hp 4bbl K-10 to 2500 1977 TLS 400 conv.cab R LF4 175hp 4bbl K-10 to 2500 1979 TLS 400 con. cab, a/t, Cal R LF4 170hp 4bbl K-10 to 2500 I don't know if the other number is a VIN. Check for other numbers at the back of the block. I'm sure someone else here can narrow it down further. ------------------ Southpa 1970 GMC 1500 Custom Victoria, BC, Canada [This message has been edited by Southpa (edited April 01, 2002).]

Wow i cant find those casting numbers in my books,the part C6 almost sounds fordish,but the later numbers your trying to find are the suffix code TLS,cant find in my books but i have nothing printed newer than 72 so it must be after that more than likely a 350 or 400 and not a 327,283,etc.

C6F203523 is the last of the VIN number of the truck it originaly was in, but whats rellt odd is that that is not a normal VIN number endien of a 75-79 truck, a normal vin for say a 78 is CCL448J118407
the part that owuld be on the original engine stamped would be 8J118407 the year is always the first stamped digit to be found on engine and frame C is not right, something is wrong 6 would be the year, IE 1976 6 would be the first digit found ------------------ Randy- Lincoln, IL randy@ccaonline.com -71/C-10(thx teeitup and crews!)350 4+4/CH465(thx 71Chev, GMCPaul, and CPNE)longfleet bed(thnx meathead95)!very apart and not driveable still..... -'84 Z28 H.O. 305 L69 700R4 GT4 3.73 - 1984 Firebird SE 2.8L T-5 GT4 3.73 -1981 Cutlass Supreme, dunno what im gonna do with it yet... -79 G20 pass van, 350/th350/10bolt *Paint is overrated © RSS Enterprises 2000 [This message has been edited by Fast68Chevy (edited April 02, 2002).] |
