Default Re: SBC 327 Block casting number 3959512

A lot of those blocks were used as replacement pieces and found in HD trucks in '66 & '67. The description on the eBay is accurate for the machined crankcase, longer main cap bolts and spin on filter. I had two when I raced the '67 Z28 and they were more "solid" than any other block I evaluated. The two I had also had nodular iron main caps.
