Jeff,

I can't help you with the pricing - the Driveline is always helpful for that - but I believe you'll need the two-letter engine code to confirm whether you have Corvette engines or just Corvette valve covers. The Spec Guide states RC, RD, RE, RF, SC, SD as engine codes for '63 and HE, HH, HO, HR, HT, HD, HP, KH for '66.

I don't have my manual, but my memory cells are kicking around with the "657" 66 engine. The majority of 66 327 engines are "3858174". I seem to remember that the "657" may be one those engines that was "possibly used". I will check this out for a later post. Gary

The engine with the casting number 3756519, I269 is a 283. It was cast Sept 26, 1959, making it likely to have been in a 1960 vehicle. As with the 327s, you need to supply the two-letter code following the numbers stamped on the right front machined pad. I'm a 283 nut and would like to know what you're asking for this motor (I'm only interested in the block).
