Default 1968 camaro engine ID LT-1 ?

I just got a verynice1968 camaro 350,it had been sitting since 1992 in storage, i am trying to figure out what kind of motor it has... THE BLOCK IS A 3932386 And the suffix says CI204HV i believe, i saw an HV for A 1965 327but i dont think they made a 3932386 block than ??? i also saw a HVsuffix for a 350 motor from 1968-1969 LT-1 or something like that so i believe that is what it is....I am thinking of putting it up on ebay and want to have all my facts straight...

Thanks alot !!!

Here are a couple of pics of the car...

You have a 1965 327/350HP originaly from a vette.
That casting number included a 302, 327 and 350.
If the block is bare, grab some calipers (or a tape measure - less acurate) and measure the bore:
3.00 is a 302
3.25 is a 327
3.48 and 3.66 are for 350
or you can sheck these: https://camaroforums.com/m_79309/tm.htm

The figures you gave are the stroke, not the bore. 302, 327, and 350 all have a 4.00 inch bore.
