Olds 350
 

Hi everyone,

I'm new to the site, and have a few questions. I just picked up a Olds 350, and I'm just wondering if it's the more sought after one? Here is the number off the block, 395558 2, and what I believe to be the vin, it was found on the heads on a flat spot just below valve cover i think, it's 36m170886. Also here are a few others on the intake manifold it's, 411990 with close by it D1BS. And another number on the heads 411929. there was another number i can't remember where on the right side possibly on the block it was 197 and on the left side it was 201...i can be more specific if i need to be i'd just have to go to my friends place to get whereabouts exactly the numbers were....anyways hope someone can help me

let me clear that up...any and all information you can give me on this engine would be of great help..i'm wanting to learn how to rebuild engines a new hobby...i've always been fascinated by engines and cars...anyways....one more question...does anyone know if it would be hard to swap out my 267sb v8 out of my 82 malibu classic 4 dr sedan for the 350 rocket with transmission?

395558='68-'76 Olds 350...yep it's a keeper.

Thank you very much...also nice saying...."20's belong in your wallet not on your Cutlass" :) lol totally agree

The VIN derivative tells you that is came out of a 76 and the vehicle was assembled in Lansing MI.
