<< Will someone tell me where to find the engine numbers on a 396. The car is a 68 SS. And if at all possible, how to interpret the numbers to identify factory horsepower, 4 bolt mail etc.....(or where I can find that info)... thanks, Barye >> Back of the block on the driver side, there is a ledge where the transmission bolts to the motor. There is a 7 digit number there that is the casting number. That will tell you what the block is. There is also a pad on the front of the block in front of the right (passenger side) cylinder head that should have some numbers and letters stamped in it unless someone has decked the block. Tom
