    (3855961) is the casting number. with a "P" next to it facing from the bottom
    (D 18 8) or (D 18 6) is the casting date "pass side of block"
    theres also a "K" and a "24" close together under where i found the casting number
    as well as "high perfromance" and "pass"
    and the heads casting numbers are "3964291"
    and say high performance as well.
    is it a 396 a 427 or a 454 ?

    Hey Jason... Give me a call. I am having a few wiring difficulties. The power is in and it is almost ready to fire. I just need a hand for about a hour.
