Re: my engine ID
Not all 350's have the 010 casting and not all 010 castings are 350's.
Look behind the driver's side head for a casting number. That can at least determine if it's a 350 or 305 block. On the pad in front of the passenger side head, get the stamped numbers. That can tell a lot more information about exactly what the engine was originally in.
