So is this out of a truck? if so what kind of truck? My block does have the 2 bolt caps, I wanted it that way so I could put splayed billet caps. I guess this should be a good foundation for a fun motor?

I went to a website that has a listing of numbers, and I cross refrenced the gm 3951511. and it said 1970 to 1973 truck with two bolt main. Which makes sense because the guy I bought it from said he thought it was from a truck.

Re: Block ID numbers?

That's a good site to use for future reference. I junked that small block 400 a while back and stepped up to a new DART little M. Thanks for the info though.
