Re: How can I id my engine? (kaz1961)
Welcome aboard, kaz1961.
If the engine is an original Corvette engine (ie: the seller wasn't blowing smoke up yer hoop) there should be an engine block 'stamp pad' which will be bare metal and have a series of numbers stamped on it. From these numbers, you can determine what year & model your engine is. There are a number of other methods as well, which I'm sure others on this Forum can relate to you, but this is one of the easiest. If you get the numbers and post them, I'm sure someone will check the references on your behalf and tell you what you have.
