Most say that the 305 was an unlikely choice for a bus (me included) and may not have existed in 1968. Also, have heard that 305s were blue, while my engine has orange valve covers with chevrolet logos, and the block may have been orange at one time. Engine code on the VIN tag below the VIN is "DD". Does anybody know what motor this is? I posed the same question in the "big bolts" forum and got good feedback but no definitive answer. | | |

You may need to clean and sand this area to make them ledgable. There is also a casting number behind the left head on the bellhousing flange. It won't tell you exactly which engine it is but it will give you a range of engines it is cast for. List the numbers here and the guys with decyphering books will tell you what you have,
