I am looking at a 1964 Chevelle SS which has a 283/220HP engine with a four speed transmission and four BBL carb. This drive train configuration is confirmed by the original owners bill of sale from the dealership where he purchased it. My question is: Should the engine CODE stamped on the tab read "JA" or "JH" to be correct.
