    361959 chevy 454 block info?

     



    Hi all,
    Doing a rebuild and was looking to get some additional info on my 454 block if there is any.

    The block and heads are year 1975 and from a passenger vehicle.
    Block is stamped 361959, HI PERF, F9, GM11
    Heads are stamped, pass X, 336781
    The block is also a 2 bolt main.


    Is it possible to tell what type of vehicle it is originally from...chevelle, camaro, nova???


    Thanks all
