I found V0830CLH on the front of my block near my passenger head. Can someone help me identify this engine?

 

1973 CLH 350 t/h trans., NB2 T L82 250 4 Vette/Camaro
1976 CLH 350 LM1 L 165 4 full size
1991 CLH 305 LB9 F 205 TPI Firebird

one of those..

V=Flint, Michigan Plant
0830=Made on August 30th
CLH = One of the above, would be easier if you had the date code, but hopefully by process of elimination will help you id this, if its in a 3rd gen or from a 3rd gen i'd put money on the 305

also some other helpful numbers would be the casting number (located by bellhousing behind the drivers side head), and date casting number (located on opposite side in same position or more towards the middel depending on year of block).. also any post 87 sbc should have the cubic inches indicated in litres on the back of the block by the casting number

 

Thanks, I appreciate it.

 

no prob, hopefully that helps ya some

 

Well, the dyno sheet that came with my car says 212 RWHP and 314 RWTorque and the previous owner never really bothered to check to see if the engine's been changed. I know the car CAME with a 305......now I guess I'm guessing the dyno was off....

 

Bye the way, where did you find that? I was going to do a search originally, but it's dissabled currently.

They don't list the suffix codes on there though....
