Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 70 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2011 Posts: 70 | Looking at a 64 chevy that originally came with a v-8, now it has an inline 6 but I'm not able to figure out what the engine specifically is. The full stamp on the passengers side says f1030tck. Any help deciphering would be appreciated! Thanks, Greg

Also confirm the tck letters...are they crystal clear or could you be mis-reading them? Pictures are always welcome...

I wrote it down as I looked. Which numbers would be more useful for me to look at? The one I posted is the stamp on the pad by the distributor but the only obvious casting numbers I noticed were on the manifold.. Which I wouldn't think would tell me much as it could be changed. I'll try to get a good pic too. Thanks for taking the time to respond! Greg

You could also put your block number in here http://www.adchevy.com/tools/castinglookup/for further confirmation.
