You'll have to redo the codes as it didnt' turn up. From what you have it was made in flint, michigan may 5th ican give you aeverything you need to know about that motor if you send the complete code.

The first number is the casting number for the engine the second is when it was made and what use, and the 10 point clock deals with what hour it was cast. The engine you are talking about came out of a 1968 full size chevrolet car with a 350 automatic transmission. Made the 5th of may in Flint Michigan.
