They are:

Block: 031664ET54X CON 2

I don't know the full history of this engine so either I have a later model head on a 54 block or these supposed later version high compression 3836848 heads came on 54's also.

The head date code is E65:
E = 5 = May
6 = 6th
5 = 1955
An early 848 head - most likely added later to the 1954 3100 truck block?
