Im having a hell of a time finding figuring out what exactly im working with here. Ive checked all over the forums and i keep ending up at broken links and expired websites. The number on the back side of the block is 3970010 so Ive gathered its a 350, as it should be. I was told this motor is a 350 bored .040 over out of a 72 C10. The motor is stripped down and sitting on an engine stand right now so if theres any other numbers i need to find that would help identify let me know.

I see 3 different numbers there
1st) V0830TBM
2ND) 7398
3RD)C97106606
