I picked up a std 360 last week and just got it back from cleaning. There are no engineering/casting # on it so I was hoping someone has seen one before. Supposedly came from a truck.
Front - facing the front, on the right, there is the '352' with '81' cast below it. On the lower right there is a '7' and a '2' stamped on the block.
Back - Upside down '352' and '46' cast. There are two horozontial hash marks on either side.
Inside the valley - there are numbers painted by each cylinder. 1-4 2-4 3-5 4-5 5-5 6-5 7-5 8-5 (cyl grading?) By #5 there is a '63' cast into the block.
Outside - External ribs. By #5 there is '46 DIF' cast. An 8 is stamped on the adapter pad. Oil pump pad has a H stamped. Date tag of 1025.
Bottom - On the back ears, right side has a '2' stamped, left has an 'M'.
There are 4 bolt holes for the motor mounts per side. On the right side there is a boss (7/16) behind the mount that points out parallel to the ground (when installed). Main webbing is 3/4' wide.
Something else. The valley is such a shiny silver that it looks as if someone polished it.
I would assume that with the ribbing on the outside it probably was a later casting.
