I have one on my air cleaner and I JUST recently found out the original motor for my car had been replaced. Would like as much info as possible please

 

quick google search,

"From 1955-74, the small-block engine was known as the "Turbo-Fire V8".

 

what side is your dipstick on locruid?

you should be aware that stickers mean nothing...so lowered expectations is the way to go here...

 

Aye I understand that but the block casting matches to a 80-85. So the sticker MUST be wrong imo

 

Hehe yea I knew that once I started realizing a 87 flexplate didnt match mine :P Dipstick is on the right side of the vehicle (left if you looking at the motor from the front). I plan on putting in a 350 next year so its not THAT important to me, i'm just trying to satisfy my curiousity. I might just have to dig deeper on the block and see if I can nail down more info. Only thing I KNOW for sure is the casting which places it in the 80-85 305 catagory

 

its most likely a stock 305, probably a lg4. Nothing special. Would make a great boat anchor though...
