Re: 1969 350/300 LONG BLOCK HA CODE....4 speed..
Alan Colvin's "Chevrolet by the Numbers" 1965-69 (page 67) shows that this particular block with #388 casting number has it as a 4 bolt main. Not only was it used in the SS350 but also in Z/28 cars. It a shame the assembly date code has that engine built the same week as my 05A Camaro, or I probably would have bought it! By the way, does it have a Norwood or Van Nuys partial vin??? Just curious.

Re: 1969 350/300 LONG BLOCK HA CODE....4 speed..
That assembly date on the deck is way too close to my car's build date. Considering that your engine was assembled at the Tonawanda plant (New York) and the fact that my car was built in the Van Nuys plant can only suggest that a correctly assembled engine would have been assembled weeks prior to my car having being built. Don't know how they could've shipped an engine 3000 miles during that same time frame. I only wish it was assembled 3-4 weeks earlier. I would've been very interested in your engine. Right now I can only live with the HC coded 2 bolt block in my car. It does have a nice lumpy cam in it but I can only get it to run on 100 plus octane without pinging...did I mention the 11.1 compression??? Hahha [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

Just for reference, the Deuces have blocks cast 05/18 and assembled 05/20 and installed in cars dated 05D.
