Identifing a big block
By Fernando Herrera, Jr. - 12/28/2001 6:15:14 PM; IP 67.97.110.39
Hello, my name is Fernando and I'm from South Texas.
I've recently been given a big block off of a galaxy 500. I don't know the exact year model but its between 62-66. I'm curious as to the size of that engine. I have gotten most of the numbers on the block. The first line reads C 3 A and I could not make out the last symbol. The second line reads 6 0 1 5 - E. I really think that this is a 390 because it has a 2v carb. I did notice that the gaskets however did not look like factory gaskets. I there a possiblity that someone may have installed this intake and carb on a different size big block. If anyone could help me in possibly identifing this engine, I would most appreciate it.
Thanks,
Fernando
