I need help identifying an engine. Here are the numbers I have:

Front Left Block: small #s 12B633916 I think this is partial VIN
larger #s F0324CTL

back right Block: large #s 3970014
smaller side ways C 15 72

back left Block: very large # T1
smaller side ways CONV2

Inside Head: 3888938

I looked these up but couldnt get a clear answer. Any help would be appreciated!
 
I got you covered Nathan,

3970014 block ........1968-79 350ci, 200, 255 horse car and truck 2&4 bolt main

3888938 heads.....not in my book, dbl check your numbers. they may be newer than 95, do they have center bolt valve covers? my book is for 55-95
 
Thanks Greg! I did a search on my own and I really couldnt come up with what I thought was correct. The heads....I really cant read the numbers very well. They all look like 3s or 6s or 8s or 9s. Maybe when I pull off the other valve cover, I will be able to get a better number. Anyway.......I practically got this motor for free! Nice tall aluminum Eldebrock valve covers and aluminum Eldebrock Perormer 4 barrel intake. Fresh orange paint on block. The only thing I can visibly see wrong with it is one of the rocker bolts is broke. It may possibly be built. The reason I say that is because there were like 2 sets of racing slicks sitting with it. I have my finger crossed!
 
I dont know if they are pressed or screwed but I took the heads off yesterday and found out that it has a roller cam and lifters and is bored to 30 over. Now i need to get someone to look at it and tell me what else has been done to it!
