I am replacing a 1969 Chevy 250 inline 6 cylinder and do not know where to find the casting numbers. Advance Auto tells me that I have a
1973 engine because it is a three bolt starter but I just replaced the starter and the book called for a 3 bolt starter and not a 2 bolt for this model c10 truck. These seem to be critical to the engine I buy. Can anyone fill me in on where to find the engine casting number? Thanks

The production Code letters IMMEDIATELY follow the engine Serail; Number . The NUMBER is found on a pad at the front right hand of the cylinder block JUST TO THE REAR of The DISTRIBUTOR !
