    3963512 was used in the 427 in 1969 in both 2 and 4 bolt configurations. It was also used from 1970-1976 for 454 (as referenced above) in 2 and 4 bolt.

    So - you may have the straight skinny, i.e., 1969 Corvette.

    Post the numbers on the pad in front of the passenger side head.

    Something like T0215XX

    May have a three character suffix but a '69 Corvette will start with L or M and be two characters.
