drsmtl 12-02-2005, 07:22 PM CAN SOMEONE DECODE THIS BLOCK (87 305) FOR ME? TOP LINE: V1008CHK SEC. LINE: CHS902594 IT WAS A Q-JET FROM THE FACTORY AND THAT IS ALL I KNOW. THE HEAD CASTING # 14101081 jayachtee 12-02-2005, 07:34 PM Those numbers are from the front passengers side? Try looking here (http://www.nastyz28.com/sbchevy/sblock.html) to see if it answers your question. There is also a casting number on the rear drivers side that has more information. drsmtl 12-02-2005, 07:47 PM YES, THE NUMBERS ARE FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE PAD BY THE WATER PUMP. WHAT CODES WERE USED FOR THE HIGH OUTPUT MODELS? jayachtee 12-02-2005, 07:52 PM You just waded in too deep for me so I'll have to defer the the more informed ladies and gentlemen that frequent here. 87ElCamino 12-02-2005, 08:12 PM V1008CHK V = Mfg. in Flint, MI 10 = October 08 = Day of the month CHK, I think this was a 78 LM1 350 w/ 170 HP. Does it have center bolt valve covers? Nothing high performance about that motor. drsmtl 12-03-2005, 06:26 AM ERNIE, YES, IT DOES HAVE CENTER BOLTS ON THE VALVE COVERS. IT CAME OUT OF AN UNMOLESTED 87 CHOO-CHOO SS.... I AM UNFAMILIAR WITH THE SECOND SET OF NUMBERS. THEY ARE NOT STAMPED IN THE SAME FONT OR TYPE AS THE FIRST LINE.... JUST LOOKING FOR SOME INFORMATION WITHOUT TEARING IT APART.... IT HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH A 383 TOPPED WITH TUNE PORT INJECTION.... THANKS, BOB 87ElCamino 12-03-2005, 09:27 AM YES, IT DOES HAVE CENTER BOLTS ON THE VALVE COVERS. Then it's an 87 and up engine. Probably just a stock 305. drsmtl 12-03-2005, 09:47 AM ERNIE, I THINK YOU ARE CORRECT. THE ORIGIONAL PAPER WORK WAS IN THE GLOVE BOX.... IT GIVES THE DATE OF SALE AS 12/5/86 WITH 354-(NEW) AS THE MILAGE... THE COMPLETE VIN 36CCW0HXHS902594. WHAT I SAW AS A C IN THE SECOND LINE MUST BE AN "X"..... SO, HOW DOES ONE MAKE A COFFEE TABLE OUT OF A 87 305 AHD A TH200????? | ||
