Re: block casting numbers?
Funny # it should be a string of #s 7 or 8 digits long. Something like 3858618. Infact the # should start with a 3, a # that starts with a 1 for with a few exceptions is an 1980 and newer motor. Remember that somtimes 6 look like 8s and 8 look like 3s, sometimes the casting of the #s is a bit rough...
Hope this helps, -Fred |

Re: block casting numbers?
If it is out of a truck, should be 4 bolt main block. 3970010 is a common # used for 350 block.

Re: block casting numbers?
I came up with three posibilities for the casting #, I would assume that it is the second one, however it can be crossrefrenced by getting the casting #'s off of the heads. On a long shot you might just have gold on your hands
