Re: 3970010 block stamped V0907TJA
the block number is the casting id, the other number/letters you listed are the suffix from the vehicle the engine was originally installed.

The partial VIN number close to the V0907TJA can pinpoint which year it's from.

Thats a Great block..... It was used for 3 diffrent Engine sizes. the 307,327,350. I have the same Engine... It was originally a 350.. But I went through rebuilt it with a large journal 327 Crank... With todays Engines though... Its really not what it used to be. I wont do anymore old SBC engines......... Its not worth it anymore with the technology and better running motors we have today...........

Get the block decked for squareness and it's just another 010 casting 4" bore block. Decking the block will remove all those stamped in numbers.
