It is just a 350 crate engine and when you install it with the TPI intake that what it will be. How much horsepower & torque it will make depends on the heads & cam.

Check the serial numbers on the block and check it with the code and that should tell you what year the block is, I know you said it was a new crate motor but it will still from a particular era. I have a Crate motor in mine that is new from the Chevy dealer that came from the 79 to 85 era

if it's a 350, it's definately NOT an LS. LS heads won't fit on that block, the LS1 (5.7) is a 346 ci. LT1 or LT4 heads will fit though,
