Where did you get 'these numbers? I cannot find 3835916 in any of the casting number lists I have. First off, is it a inline 6? Number would be behind the distributor. Older V8 on top of the block in front of the cylinder head mating surface.

Hi crm543100 Using this page: https://chevy.oldcarmanualproject.com/chevyresto/54057.htmIt looks like you have a 1954 Chevrolet 235 six that was built in the Tonawanda plant and came in a 1954 Chevrolet 3100 1/2 ton truck. I'm guessing from your user name that you have exactly that type of truck? If so... there is a good chance you still have the original engine. Hope that helps! 🙂 If it is the original engine, I consider that a plus. 👍 PS Are you sure the last number in the casting number isn't a 1 or a 7?

Hi again
The head number should have been 3835913 according to info I have, Again, as in my previous post, are sure about the last number? Could it be a 3 instead of a 6?

Hi Keith 👍
Truth is, I keep lists of casting numbers from 3 different sources... and don't "fully" trust any of them. 🙂
But, usually the info is there somewhere between the 3 of them.
