Find the Motor Number:

Small Block Chevy: Machined pad in front of the passenger side cylinder head. Often hidden by the alterator.

If you can't find the Serial Number get the Casting Number:

Small block casting date is located on driver side rear of block on flange forward of bellhousing.

Post what you find back here & I will see if I can get you some Info......
