Re: What year sbc 350 is it?

That engine comes out as a built in Mexico 2 piece rear main Target master 350. Fleet replacement engine for trucks with Two piece rear mains but a pretty solid base to build a nice engine.

Most likely it won't have a serial number of suffix number on the front unless the mechanic stamped it. Then again it could have the work order number from the shop stamped there with a date.

As for gaskets it should just be a regular early 80's 350.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
