(1) 1969 & (2) 1970 383 HPs

[MarkLevi]

I have (3) 335hp HP blocks/short blocks that, though I'm not specifically trying to sell (would be in the for sale section if I was), I would happily work with someone to reunite an engine with its birth-body. I already ran a cursory Google for RR/SBee/Char in R/WM21 & 23, RM27, and XP29 under "H" and "N" that came up empty. I suppose there could be E-bodies involved, also?

Anyway:

(1) Red; fairly late 1969 partial VIN 9G275746 (5/19 build date)
(2) Orange; 1970 partial VINs 0B112508 and 0A141826

0B112508 is an E body.
the other 2 are B bodies.

this is due to the plants and what they were building

0B112508 is an E body.

Thanks - I suspected as much, but have never put the time in to try to learn "What" Where" "When". (has anyone built a comprehensive matrix/graphic/chart of this info, that's out 'there' for download?)

So - in 1970 - being an orange 335hp "magnum", this would only be in JS/BS 23/27?; - any JH/BH/BP with a 4bbl 383 would have gotten a 330hp blue engine without the "Magnum"/"Hemi Grind"/"Purple shaft" cam if I understand correctly?

Thanks
Mark

275746 is out of a Belvedere based car so R***H9G.

The odds are best it is out of a Road Runner (RM) but the possibility exists it is out of a Satellite or Sport Satellite (RH, RL, RP) with a four speed.

 

[MarkLevi]

.... with a four speed.

Thanks for the info. Whenever I feed the hay out from in front of the rack that the engine is on in my shed, I'll look at the crank for a pilot bearing - for an additional possible clue. I'll go ahead and do a cursory Google on the other Belvedere price classes shy of GTX - probs will be empty, too, but no biggie to check.

Thanks
