Chev 41-49 The 235 can be distinguished from the 216 by the following prefix-
'41 AG,AL
'42 BG,BL
'46 DDA,DDM,DEA,DEM(2nd design)
'47 EDA,EDM,EEA,EEM
'48 FDA,FDM,FEA,FEM
'49 GDA,GDM,GEA,GEM
So your '49 may be a 235, look at the side of the pan (driver's side) for #235 stamped about mid way. This number you listed appears to be stamped number (at the distributor), you need to locate the casting number also on the right side but lower on the block and foreward. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 2,074 | Block casting numbers for 48-49:
