this block has a screw on oil filter on the block
8921967
GM
The other side is
GM 19 19670
H
The Block is machined and comes with a machined head, new crank/ with rust, new Cam/with rust , pistons rings like new and bearings/rings in box. The motor has no corrosion in the cylinders but the area where the head sits has corrosion on it. The cam is cover in rust and so is the crank. I was told that it was ready for assembly. I have no distributer, could I use an HEI dist. in this block or should I stick to the old points style?
I did find a 47 GMC 2 Ton, under the hood is a 270 that was rebuilt but not sure how many miles on the motor. The motor looks really clean for just sitting the last 8 years.
Thanks for any input! Im sure I may have left some info out of my discription of the block. Let me know if you need any more info. If you know where I can get a Distributer let me know.

You thought I drove a Ford! Where is my cresent wrench, I would like to adjust your thought pattern.

Now I know it's is an inline 6 cylinder 230 block, will it be a simple swap of parts from the old 235 babbet motor to the new motor?
I did find pistons, rings, beaings in a box along with the crank, cam and head but I am missing the intake, distributer, fuel pump, Carb and other parts to get it running.
The machine work was done on the block 30 years ago, I am afraid that the person who started this project was not availiable to comment on what was done.

Also what type/year vehicle are to looking to stuff this new found motor into? If it's a pre 63 Chev you'll need the 216/235/261 or similar vintage GMC. 63 and later Chevs were 230/250/292 modern and totally different than 235. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 23 Junior Member | | Junior Member Joined: Sep 2005 Posts: 23 | I have a 48 1 1/2 ton Loadmaster. I did find a 47 GMC motor 270. It looked like it would bolt right up.
