Re: [Chevelle-list] Need help decoding SBC block numbers

CGC is a 1971 350 2bbl from either an El Camino, or a Full Size.  As coincidence may have it, thats also the suffix code that was on the motor in my blue 64 Impala.   V10219CGC   The V stands for the Flint Michigan engine plant. there should be only 4 numbers between the V and the C, and those are the month and day the motor was built.   The first 8 digits, I have no idea.   Dan McIntosh 1963 Impala SS Convertible "HOP IT TILL IT BREAKS" Street Metal Fabrications http://www.lowriderimpala.com   ----- Original Message ----- From: Clint Hooper To: chevelle-list@chevelles.net Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2005 9:48 PM Subject: [Chevelle-list] Need help decoding SBC block numbers This number is stamped on the front pad on a SBC I want to build: 11J15877V10219CGC Can any of you numbers gurus help me decipher it?
