What is the block code for tpi 350 block

Hello, I'm new to the site. I have a 1990 Iroc conv 305 auto. I'm looking at buying a 5.7 tpi engine from a guy. What and where should I look on the block that would tell me it's a 5.7? Thanks

Look for the block number or 5.7l behind the rear of the drivers cylinder head on the block. You will also need to go with 22#hr injectors (southbayfuel injectors.com) use the promo code tuned for a discount. The computers memcal reprogramed. if you need assistance with that let me know

Look on the sides of the block, (in big numbers) it will either be 638 or 880.
If it truely is a TPI, the original is 638.
