A family member gave me an engine block and some parts the other day. It does not have the crank or heads but everything else is there. He said it came out of a 69 Camero. The first number I found on the block was 3932386. On the opposite end of the block there were some numbers that I couldn't quite make out. I THINK it was V1I29F. There might have been one more character after the F but not sure. I did a google search for the 3932386 and one site showed it was for a 69 camero 327, another site showed some 305's and 350's had the same number on them. Any way to ID the engine for sure as well as the horspower? I am going to be selling it but I want to know what I have first. Any ideas what this block would be worth? or do you need more info first.

 

That casting # was used for a 1969 302, 327, or 350.
That other set of numbers (date code), I don't think you're getting those right.
Take a look HERE, the suffix code in front of the passenger side head will narrow it down.

 

just a note there is NO (E) in CAMARO

 

Thats an embarrassing way to start at a new forum. Anyway hopefully this weekend I can get to the block in the daylight and confirm what all the numbers are.
