Just checked my restoration guide, no such number as you gave. 77 engine codes would be CHD,CKD,CKZ,CLA,CLB,VLC,CLD, and CLF. Casting number would be 3970010 for 75-77.

CMJ was used twice, once in '74 on a 350 used in the full sized chevy and then again in '80 on a 305 used in the full sized chevy and in the Camaro. Need to check you casting date to determin which you have.
