![]() ![]() ![]() I have never seen a block without the BIG casting numbers near the bellhousing,but the other numbers near the altenator are often milled off when they deck the block during a rebuild,if its a factory short block it might have all zeros,or the suffix CE on it(stands for complete engine)Īs for the roller lifters,I asked all the chevy guru's I know,they all said what Tim said-pull the intake,its the only sure way to tell(I didnt because they didnt start the roller lifters till 87,I have an 86)-its like the 4 bolt mains,there are lots of things that might point to it being a 4 bolt(certain casting #,oil plugs near timing cover,etc)the only sure way is to pull the pan.ĭont be too dissapointed you got a 305 instead of a 350-another guy bought a "350" and had me install it in his truck-he thought it was awful doggy for a 350,so I looked up the engine code-turns out the impala he bought the motor out of had a swap before it hit the boneyard-it turned out to be a 267!! /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/screwy. Thats the trouble with small blocks-they all look the same-kinda like a vagina!-I had a friend that works at a boneyard ask me if I knew anyone with a 400 SBC for sale-I told him he had one lying on the ground near a 72 GMC pickup-he said "no way,thats the 307 POS out of that truck"-I told him he'd better go take a better look at the flywheel and damper!he looked and he was /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif!.He ran that motor hard for 2 years,even after sitting on the ground all year in the rain it still survived!. ![]()
