Need help reading the stamps on my 350 sbc
I took the best picture I could, and this is it. The two stamps are frustrating because they are right on top of each other. I can see the partial vin, it reads T9Z 524529. I believe the T stands for GMC, the 9 stands for 1979, and the Z stands for the assembly plant GMAD FREMONT, and the 524529 is the partial vin, which is great because that means my engine is #'s matching to my truck
 . Now what I cant read, is the stamp under it, which I think is the engine code. So far, it looks like V, something, something, 0, 1, 9, B, X. Frustrating

TBX 1970 350 van & bus 255 4 C-10,20,2500,3500,3200 TBX 1979 350 conv. cab, a/t L LS9 155 4 K-10 to 2500
