open hood, count number of plug wires.
then go to

1GCCT14R0H2149544 =
1GC = Chevrolet
C = 3001-4000 pound GVW, hydraulic brakes
T = 4 wheel drive
1 = series: half-ton4 = body type: pickup
R = 2.8L V6. Since there was only that engine and the 2.5 4-banger that year, opening the hood woulda told ya that. I strongly suggest at least putting a 3.4L V6 or a 350 in it's place
0 = check digitH = model year
2 = assembly plant: Moraine, OH149544 = serial number. The 149,544th vehicle of said type built that year
Suggest getting very friendly with us over at
