Unknown block
I am looking for help to identify what has been said to be the following:
mid sixties small block, small journal, 4" bore, high nickle, 2 bolt main 302. The engine has a steel crank with factory numbers but has been no help in identifying the block.
I have some experience in small blocks after owning and rebuilding severl camero's and a Yenko Nova from 1970 but have not heard of this engine. I looked at the casting numbers and they gave no clue as to the stated Rarity of this block. Any help would be appreciated.

I have to retreive them from the shop and will tomorrow. Does this block likely exist and if so is it a rare block?

67-68: 389257
67: 3892657
68: 3914678
Some of these motors went into Novas also.Jack

I can't remember a singular event that triggered this nuttiness so I'll say it was being born. After we moved from Kansas to Chicago (I was 5 then) we'd drive back down each summer to visit the...
