3916321 Block Useage

[Charles A.]

I have a block with a casting #3916321. Casting date H127. I always thought this block was used in a 68 427/390 h.p. car. I saw on page 30 of the new Driveline that someone is advertising a 3916321 block as being used in an L88. Can someone direct me to a source that shows the different engines that used this block. I am fixing to sell it and I do not want to misrepresent its useage. Thanks Chuck Arnold.

The 3916321 block was used for early 1968 big block applications, both passenger car and Corvette. For Corvette, it was used for ALL big block engine options, including L-88. However, SHP and HD (i.e. L-88) were equipped with 4 bolt main bearing caps. Other engines used 2 bolt caps.
