Hi all, i have just bought a 340 engine (dated 27 Jan71). It been torn down at one stage. The Block pad just above the pan is stamped 2B116328. I know some of the last digits should correspond to the last VIN numbers, but do any of the first numbers relate to the type of car this came out of?
Also, the cam is an aftermarket camshaft, it has the numbers 4 5 H 07 and #14380 stamped on the end, along with a symbol or picture stamped in which looks very much like a spider or bug near a nail ! I can take a closeup picture if any one is curious, or does anyone think this symbol and cam number sounds familiar?
BTW, the engine has been running a long time
since it was rebuilt so the first cam number would not be a 07 date stamp.
Thanks for help.
