Casting is 3754844 on the flip side of the block is 0 K 21....which I translate as 1960 Novemebr 21st
Clues.....engine had a right hand drive bell housing used with, I beleive, a hydraulic clutch..... have seen those set up in a 60 era Chev van...... starter is solonoid model not a stomper....
Hoping to buy it but can't run on existing stand..... engine is cleaned and painted like lipstick on a pig!!!!!!!!!
Would appreciate comments/suggestions....etc.
PS......could this be a GMC engine .....or a Chev engine fitted in a GMC truck in Canada???????

what's the block casting?
in Canada many GMC trucks had Chevy engines, and Canadian engine stamps do NOT follow USA patterns.
