What engine do i really have?
hello everyone im kinda new to this forum so heres to hoping im in the right place. im havin a bit of trouble figuring out which engine is in my 82 z-28 . if my research is correct then i have a 1975 350 block with 1964 - 1966 327 heads, but there is just something that doesnt seem right about that. the casting number for the block is "3970010" with a suffix stamp of V 313TXB and the casting number of the heads is "3782461" just below the head casting number was stamped " E145" and next to the block number was "19" i hope with these numbers someone can help me identify what im working with thanks for the help

I don't know if it would be working backwards he probably used 327 heads to raise the compression.
