Engine size
 

I’ve posted before with no luck and would like to know if anyone can help identify the engine size of my 1970 C10. I know it’s not the stock motor. I have posted a couple pics of the block numbers and while investigating engine sizes it looks like it’s either a 283 or 327 but I can’t find anything that can tell me the correct size. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Likely 327.

And suffix code also says 327.

While suffix code also says 57 283 that can be ruled out if your block has side mount motormounts.

The book says 1967, either a 302, 327, or 350. EC says 66-327. That is a bit confusing.

Re: Engine size
 

if you check other sources you’ll find EC is for 67 too.

Wow it’s very confusing. Thanks for your reply.

Thanks for your reply. It looks like geezer#99 seems to agree. The question now would be what year it actually is and what affect this would have on buying parts.

Pick a year.
66,67 close enough.
You could find the date code to narrow it down.
Pics in here where to look.

geezer,
The only other stamps I can find are the I3 to the left of the casting numbers in my picture and the one I just attached which I think is just a time code. Sorry it was raining so it's not very clear.

Likely need to clean all the paint off to find more.

Re: Engine size
 

The block casting numbers look like it is 67 and casting numbers for a 67 Camaro Z28 . If your other pad numbers match could have some good value .
