Full size chevs were also built at St Louis. The "F" in the VIN derivative means Flint Assy Plant which built Full size chevys and confirms this block is out of a full size chev.

Gents,

Thanks for your replys. The motor does have a casting # 3795397 alumium intake manifold which seems to be a 62 Vette with a Rochester 4-BBl carb. I realize parts can be changed thru the years. Trying to determine if this motor is a 'diamond in the ruff' and worth saving.
