Hot Rods what YEAR engine is this??

Have a chevy 350 with the numbers
10D153886 and also V0220CNP

can anyone tell me what year is this engine....number came off the block

 

The CNP in the book I have says 70 350 250 HP

 

There will be a cast-in code near where the bellhousing bolts on, a letter and three numbers with slotted screw heads on either side. This code will tell you the date the block was cast. A is January, B is February, etc. The next two numbers are the date of the month and the last number is the year in the decade. For example, if the last digit is 8 it could be a block from '58, '68, '78, etc. Other clues in the block will pinpoint the exact year. Chevy heads have the same casting date code.

 

also, on the passenger side front deck is an ID code too.

 

Get the cast numbers !

 

JD -

I got those numbers from the engine ID/ VIN code area. Does that mean I have to get the block date code and casting number too.

I can't get back to see the block date code or block casting number.

Joker -
it isn't the orginal motor

Saltflat-
1970s seems possible but in order to get the right headers and such it would be super nice to narrow down.

 

The partial VIN 1=Chevy 0=1970 D= Danville Georgia if the CNP suffix code is as stated( I didn't look it up) its from a 1970 full size chevy,motor assembled on 2/20/70

 

Thanks so looks like its a 1970 then. Thought it was newer but oh well

 

10xxxxxxx is Chevy Car 1970, yeah, that's what it is
