Hello,
My neigbor just came over with the numbers off his 350 chevy block in his Jaguar. He wanted to know if it was a corvette engine like he was told when purchased the car.
IT was an 010 casting so I told him that it was possible. The VIN stamp had an S in it so I told him it was for sure a vette block but then I looked at the prefix on the date stamp and it was a K not a V or an F like I expected also the suffix which was DRB which is not a corvette code for either 69 or 79. Acoording to online info it is for a 79 full size chevy. And the K prefix means it was assembled in Canada,The VIN derivetive is 19S254236 and the 2 after the "S" does not fit in as it should be a 7 for 69 or a 4 for 79. SO my real Question is did Chevrolet make other vehicles ( I.E. Full size Chevys) other than Corvettes in either 69 or 79? Thanks in advance for any help. Bill
