SInce I am putting a 400ci in my 1966 Chevelle I am selling this beautyWaving


HELP..
Block # 3858174 Date code= H25 so Aug. 1965
Pad # F09I4HF so Flint Sept 14, 1965
Heads 3795896 C184
Ex. Manifold, RH 3747042
Intake Manifold 3886677 ?
Quad Jet.
This has been sitting for 10 years so it will need to be rebuilt but I was told it was out of a 1966 Corvette with 56,000 miles that had a rear end accident.

Thanks For any help and if you are interested in the motor email me..LOL

The "HF" stamped on the engine pad does correspond to a 65' 300 HP Corvette. The head castings escape me... should end in 462. The head casting number you posted is for a low performance 2bbl head with tiny 1.72I/1.50E valves. The exhaust manifold casting number looks correct. The intake manifold - I came up empty handed. :confused:

Thanks and that's my confusion..LOL I know people change things threw the years but this engine doesn't have a vin# stamp so it could have been a replacement for a bad motor in 1965 or 66..I am going to get better picture's of the manifold just to see...
