how to tell what block is what

[383 hatch]

Yes, same block.

 

[smidey]

so they would obviously not have 5.0 on the 5.7's

 

[tailhappy vn]

yeah its a 5.0vs block that im using to build my 355 ..... not a factory stroker block

M8 from what I know if neither of your blocks have the 5.0l stamp inside the square this means they are factory Stroker blocks wich did come out in some vr a and the vs.

Pardon my ignorance, but where exactly is this on the block.

Pardon my ignorance, but where exactly is this on the block.
Thanks.

From the looks of the engine in my hallway:
Drivers side of the block, halfway along side and about 3inch up from where the sump bolts up.
I also believe the position is about the same for the stamping on the side of 202/3.3l straight 6 blocks too.
