Asked by Elco79 Mar 26, 2017 at 05:23 PM about the 1979 Chevrolet El Camino

I recently bought this el camino 79. It was
sitting in a drive way for about 2 months on
a neighbors drive way and i finally convinced
him to sell it to me and he doesnt know

engine without guessing. so now it anyone

The engine number is stamped on the engine block. Your looking for the block number.
