Thanks guys for replying back. was able to find out on the info. you guys provided that it is a 216 engine. was told when i bought the truck that the guy thought it was the original engine, but the owner of the truck 10 yrs. ago had passed away within that time and the guy that was selling the truck to me told me that he thought it was the original engine. How can you tell if its original for sure or not ??? Thanks again to everyone replying to this.
