38 GM
3970010
This may not be the original motor that came in the gmc. I plan on rebuilding this motor to put in my 1948 Chevy 3600 wrecker.
Thanks for any help

3970010 chevrolet blocks were used from 1960-1980 with some being 2bolt and some being 4bolt. If you have a correct year motor out of a 71 GMC, I've never seen anything but a 4bolt in a 69-72 truck. They are 350 c.i., 250 horsepower, 8.5:1 comp., 4bc.
I could tell you if it was a correct year motor with the letters and numbers off of the front pad, or by the date code off the back of the motor. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 140 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 140 | I'll get you those numbers this evening.

You hit me up with some dandys for numbers!
There are no TYZ codes for 71, but for 70 there is a TAZ
For 63, there are no PV codes, there are PG and PK codes for 292 6cyl. Check those numbers again to make sure | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 140 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 140 | These are not the original motors that came in these trucks.
