Thank you for helping me see.
3835517 is the head casting number of the 235 head I had installed on a remacd from Verbeck, which has the block number 3693374 and serial number GEA104589.

I happen to have the sales receipt for the remacd engine. It indicates I purchased a 235t short block for $285.56. Dated November 24, 1975.

Oh yeah, You are correct..383 not 388.

The block I replaced in 75' had a freeze crack in the block. I was told the cracked block was a 216, with a 235 head. I guess they did that for a little more horsepower in the day.
Thank you again for the light.

The head is a 2-holer.
