350 four bolt main .. Anywhere from 1970 to 86.
Very popular 350 casting ..
No 327 engines carry that casting number and they never built a 4 bolt main 327

1970 block .. about 250 horse
1986 about 160 horse.
3970010 block with four bolt main most likely came from 3/4 ton or one ton truck or van

The only way to really find out if it is a 327 or 350 is get the suffix code off the block located above the water pump hole on the passager side of the block

And a 327 dose have that casting number so dose the 350. If you look in the back of the engine behind the fly wheel and there is casting numbers with a 010 and 020 its most likely a hi nickel block

That is a stock up rating ..that block can handle at lest 400 hp it all depends on who much money you have to spend...hot rods don't run on gas they run on money and lots of it lol
