Block identification

I recently purchased a truck 67-72 model, for parts for other projects.
It has been pieced together from trucks of every year, I believe, lol.
I'm trying to identify the motor that is in it. The stamped numbers/ letters are
14J20200. F040*TA I am uncertain what the 5th character is. It is not stamped
very well. Could be a C. G. O. or another letter that has an arch at the top.

Thanks !!!

Re: Block identification

To help narrow it down we need a little more info, is it a small block or big block?
14J20200- this is the partial VIN of the vehicle it was originally installed in.

F040*TA

For small blocks 'CTA' suffix could be a 400 out of a '74 Chevelle or Impala, or a 305 out of a '78 Monza
'DTA' could be 305 out of a Buick, Olds or Chevy passenger car
No codes in my book that start with G or O

Not knowing the missing character makes it difficult to determine what you have..

Guess what that missing character is and have a look at this site.
