  2. I'd guess that same as your uncle something close to the 400 would be my guess. Like out of a later '60 Firebird.

    Maybe someone else knows more about it.

    looks like pontiac.

    I could be wrong, but there should be the cubic inchs on the drivers side of the block down low towards the front.

    I think the one without paint is a late 66 400 cast for the 67 year.

    yep, two freeze plugs per side = 66 and earlier

    3 plugs is 67 and later. casting date is december 23, 1966

    and YZ decodes as a 1967 GTO HO automatic engine. You sir just scored. I would love to have that motor to replace the original HO in my 67 GTO. Did you get the heads or the crank?

    took me awhile to decode everything.
