Default Casting Numbers

Has someone compiled a complete C1 engine components casting number list? I searched the stickies and found just carburetors.

The 1953-1967 Corvette spec guide by John Amgwert. found in the NCRS store is a good place to start

Colvin's "Corvette By the Numbers" is a good resource.

What year(s) are you most interested in? I used to carry some cheat sheets with me when judging at Bloomington, but I am not sure I still have them. Happy to look once I know what years you are focused on.
