Jody1970 Oct 11th, 00, 4:56 PM I have a block number of 10069286 with a date code of E040 Anybody know what this is out of and the size of the engine? Thanks Jody ------------------ 70 Chevelle SS Hardtop 454/400T.H. 4:10 Ratio Black/White Stripes BillK Oct 11th, 00, 5:06 PM Jody, My AERA block book shows that casting number as being a 454 block used from 1970 to 1990. Could have come out of anything, but probably a truck. Th engine code stamped on the deck, at the front of the motor will tell you exactly what vehicle it came out of, but it really does not matter....its still a 454 block. ------------------ Bill Koustenis Advanced Automotive Machine Waldorf Md 1971 Heavy Chevy - original owner Team Chevelle #100 Jody1970 Oct 11th, 00, 6:17 PM I wish I had the numbers that were stamped on the front of the block, but this block has been milled a little the numbers were wiped out. The info you gave helps. Thanks for reply.
