BLOCK #3935439...????
 

I WAS CLEANING OUT MY BASEMENT... FOUND AN OLD BLOCK I USED IN ONE OF MY OLD RACE CARS. IT IS A FACTORY 4BOLT WITH THE LG AND SMALL OIL HOLE IN THE SIDE.

Re: BLOCK #3935439...????
 

does anyone know what this block came in???? date code is A 14 8

Re: BLOCK #3935439...????
 

Supposedly only available after January 1968 on:
1968 Passenger w/427-425HP.
1968 & 69 Corvette w/427-400-430-435HP.
Most likely it came in the 1968 models,based on it's casting date.

I have that listed for the '65 Z-16 396/425. Maybe it was a replacement carb due to the late date. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif

3130 was the number used on 65 396/425 horse full size cars. It originally came with dual inlets and pent roof float bowls with the tiny inlets just like the 3124 on Corvettes and the 3310 on Z16 engines. Those bowls may have been dropped by 1967 though.

This is Eric's pic of an original 3310, but the bowls would be the same. Thanks Eric. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif
