1969 C-10 2-Barrel Carb #'s

[Cgaines78]

This Carburetor is off my 1969 C-10 V-8. I know the top numbers tell me it's a Rochester R2-2GV, but what do the bottom numbers mean? I've seen others with 307 on them?? I just bought this truck and working on getting stuff together. Truck had no carb on it and this was in cab.

1969 Chevy C-10 V-8 with 3 spd on column.

Is there anyway to tell the engine displacement without getting to the casting numbers? Not sure but appears to be original and there is no model sticker on glove box.


Sorry for the newbie questions but it's been 20 years since I had my last classic to build!

I do not think you can tell if the engine is original without the SPID in the glove box.

I may be wrong and my wife regularly proves it to me!

Your wife would be correct again Bill!
Just find the suffix code on the flat pad in front of the passenger side head and you might find it easily.
Look here.

You still might need the casting code though.

Thanks for the info. I'll look for that info on cylinder head tomorrow.
