Location of Vin number on 68 340 block

It's the model year NOT the cast date that determines where the vin is stamped.

If the 2568 is the assembly date, it's a 1969 model year engine. VIN should be stamped just above the oil pan rail, pass side of block about half way back.



So that # on the side should "match" the last 6 # of the vin?
