I have looked all over for my casting number online at various websites it is not listed. I bought an engine that i was told come out of a 1996 chevy commercial size truck, I'm guessing a c-70. I was told the engine is a 454. The casting numbers on my 454 is "12550311." Can someone find this number? I'd really like to know if I have a 454 or a 427.
