The rate is $52.50 Canadian, which is going to fluctuate in relation to the US Dollar.

I cannot be absolutlely sure of the digit. I can email every picture I have of the stamping but it is just tough to read; even with the naked eye.

Got an email from George Zapora at Vintage Vehicle Services and he says the engine is from an Oshawa-built Chevrolet product; but would need to do a VIN search to determine exactly what product.

Can't decide if I should spend the money on this or not.


I need to thank you guys again for your continued interest. This site is a huge source of exellent data!

AC.

I agree, the extra cost and time wouldn't be justifiable.

So the mystery continues..........

Maybe the Mother, (Nova) to this orphan, (Engine) is still around.

The front pad stamping is: TO429JH 

Yes bcmiller, the block is a 4-bolt, large plugs on the side and the brass oil gauge fitting too. Inside is a 6223 crank, 3/8 bolt dimple rods and TRW 2242 pistons. Rebuilt in the 80's and never run; this is how I purchased it.

Thanks for the interest and fast replies everyone!

Hello, sorry for barging in here but I have a JH code 396 with a strange VIN stamp near the bellhousing. The numbers read: 191... I thought the 1 was supposed to be an L, but it is clearly a one.

I didn't even know the engine had a VIN stamp at first because it was buried under paint and is kind of half-stamped. Any answers for a lowly Nova guy? LOL!

If you need more pics I can email to someone for resizing because they are not going through.
