We need the specs off the heads, as the blocks could be used in trucks or other cars.
The 350 TPI iron heads would have part number 14101083.

All the more reason for you to check the head casting #'s.
Wouldn't hurt to take a gander at the lifter valley, either.

It could be a '93-up truck or crate engine.
My 638 block started off life as a ZZ3 crate engine. They were also used in LO5's, which in trucks didn't have roller lifters.
So, the block casting # tells you a 350, but doesn't tell you much beyond that.
