help with block ID

14093638...350...87-95...2 or 4...Roller or flat tappet cam
one-piece rear seal

copied from mortec.com

IS THIS THE SAME BLOCK I HAVE NOW IN MY 89 FORMULA 350TPI
L98

The reason im asking is i can get all the prepwork done on this block then pull mine reuse the crank(polish) and rods and roller lifters ,then reassemble and put back in with less down time for machining.

This block does not have roller lifters in it now.could i use my lifters in it.(if they are good )

thanks

If the retainer bolt bosses for the lifters and cam have been machined, then you can do what you propose.

Thanks, five7kid

However i wont be using that block cause i just picked up a nice 84 4X4 S-10 blazer for almost nothing(i love crackheads).so i will be driving that while my engine gets worked over and as a work vehicle . Then im gonna put the other block in the S-10 when i pick up a few bucks!!YEEHAAA!!!

Thanks again
