Need Help On Engine ID
I recently purchased a 1968 convertible that’s been sitting in a storage building for 27 years. The number on the left rear of the block is 3914678 and the number on the front right side of block appears to be V0612HT. If anyone can I’d these numbers for me, I sure would appreciate it.

3914678 block was used for the 1968 307, 327 & 350 ci. 300 & 350 hp for Corvette application. HT code comes up as 1968 350 hp 327, 4 speed Rochester 4 BBL, special cam.
Check the VIN stamp on it, but it looks like the original engine for the car.

I've found this site helpful to check numbers on Corvettes, to include the VIN, trim codes, engine code, etc.

The VIN is for a 1968 convertible, which you already knew.
