So your head casting number ends in 7763 ?

Then the full number would be 3927763.

The pics shown are fine. Who gets photo credit if I use any of the pics?

That shows the partial casting number externally and verifies another one used for Camaros.

Paul,
3921967 looks like a valid block number. Not common from my limited experience.
What's the engine stamping (by the distributor)?
Could the 4888 head # actually be 4886?

Nothing there that I can see. I’ve heard that it’s not uncommon for six to have nothing there. Is that true? Thanks

That doesn’t seem to be the correct spot.

Look from the top, passenger side, between the area of the dipstick and the distributor.

That's the right spot. It's possible the layers of paint make it impossible to see. That wirey thing to the right is the distrhold down clamp.

I can take the paint off in that one little area. What would be best to use? I’m very curious now.
