I can't figure out what year is motor is. I am pretty sure it is a Chevy I6 250. The only numbers I can find are
Block- 3789404
GM 5
CON2
D16 3
Head- 2084F57
Then if I can figure out what year I need to know the timing
Thanks for your help, glad you guys are all ways here.

If it is a 250,, the timing is 4* BTDC


There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.

If the passenger side motor mount is at the front, it's a 292. If it's at the center, opposite the driver's side, it's a 250.
