i'm new here folks but i need some help. my boss has a 65' C-60 line truck out behind the shop with a v-8 sitting in it. i can't figure out what size it may be. i found only one tag on the inside cowl of the truck. info as follows: 19500 gvw,trans (looks like) c4, rear axle- c15642, ratio- 8-72, trim -std, paint-30101. now these two numbers are: 157 and 84. all of this inf is stamped on a metal plate with 5 different motor and HP listings.
my dad said its probably a 292ci, but isn't that a six cylinder? its definitley not a 409 (BB).
according to the tag i found , that leaves it to be a 327 (i hope it is) or one of two 348's. i was told that the later was also a big block.
can ya'll help me out?
by the way, this is an old line truck that is complete far as i can tell and that it ran when it was parked during the mid 80's.
thanks in advance. roy
