Default Re: what 454 is this?

So, if your friends car is a real LS6 car with the wrong motor...then should we assume he will be looking for a dated LS6 block and components to replace this motor...??

The current motor should bring decent money from someone looking for a good BB...as for VIN stamps...they are either on the front pad or on the rough cast surface near the oil filter...the Corvette/Fullsize guys can take it from here.

All the correct dated parts will cost a few bucks...good luck.

the first post shows the photo of the VIN by the oil filter.
my friend will decide sooner or later if he wants to go for the LS6 Components as he knows they aren't cheap.
now that we know it is a LS5 motor the question is what car would the 10S189855 belong to ? I've been told its to high of a number for 1970 Corvette's and it may fall in line with a 1970 Impala. can anyone confirm were the sequence of this Vin# would fall for which type of Chevrolet,Being it is assembled in ST. Louis?
