they were never badges 402, even when 'properly badged' they were advertised as a 400. But I've never heard of them being advertised as a 396 in a truck... only in performance cars. And considering the last 396 big block was made in 69, there shouldn't have been any badges left over.
So we know your truck was originaly a grande.... has it been redone at any point?
