I want to confirm whether my 322 is out of a 40 series or the other 3, but I can only find the #1166349 on the heads. I've checked the ID page of this site and my shop manual but cant find the # starting with V that both these sources refer to.
Its not the original motor for my car, I have that in a million pieces, cant find it on that one either!
Help!

You are not going to be able to make such a determination with casting numbers.
Here is the information you need...
http://www.buicks.net/shop/engine_ident.html
There is an image showing where to find the numbers.
The only reason for not finding them where it shows is that, I think Canadain engines sometimes don't have the numbers on them.

Hi,
there a so many threads about the engine identification, an i don't want to start a new post just use this thread.
I've had the same problem, im looking for the Id between the exhaust manifold but there is no Number, i only had the block id 1165752.
I found some posts in the web that these block is a 264, but wanna go save. Does anyone know where these number are listed in any book or what else.
So long
Sebastian
