On my '55 261,(March'55),the casting numbers are located above the starter. I took pic's of a '56 6400 frame,for a potential customer,yesterday,and found the engine #'s,between the distributor,and the downdraft tube. Did this start in '56,or is this possibly a newer 261? THANKS!! https://plus.google.com/photos/108148341138770442418/photo/6076575088547032866

Are you confusing casting date(found above the starter)and the casting number(found ahead of the distributor, in a number of spots?).


See the USA in your vintage Chevrolet!

No,Dave,I'm not. there are no numbers to be found above the starter! That's what got me wondering if this is a rebuilt,(factory) block,or what??
