I finally got around to wire brushing the engine number off on the '54 so I could read it and now I am kind of stumped. The number on the block above the starter starts with H400. If I understand it correctly, that would make the motor a '49. Can anyone verify that?


Not likely a 1949 or 1950 engine since the motor mount on those is at the very front and not at the sides like 1951 to 1954. The earlier blocks do not have the cast in bosses on the side for the motor mount bolt holes.
Perhaps the number is M4xxxxx which would make it a 1954 five main bearing 327 from a Cavalier.
