2HN262265 is the last part of the vehicles vin #. There will be 8 digits before that one. You can almost make the original vehicles vin # from the above information. Providing it came from a Camaro and not a Firebird and providing it was made in the USA and not Canada. Find this car and you'll probably find the car the engine originally came from.

At least you were able to find the important numbers on the block. Casting numbers don't tell you very much and not many people are able to find the stamped in numbers. If the block ever gets decked, those numbers will be machined off.
