Thread: 1967 Buick Skylark Engine Identification Help Needed!

  1. #1

    1967 Buick Skylark Engine Identification Help Needed!

    I've got a 1967 Buick Skylark convertible with a non-stock engine in it that I am trying to figure out what I have. Here are some numbers off of the engine block:

    1241748 (Casting number from the back of the block) I believe this means a 1972 - 1980 350 ci
    271 (Production code located between the front two spark plugs on the left - driver's - side: see photo)
    I can't find the Serial number on this engine (I looked on the left cylinder bank but nothing: see photo)

    Any help would be appreciated - thx!

    location of distributor and number of valve cover bolts ( 6 ) will quickly verify whether or not you have a Buick 350

    also, the intake will probably have a '350' welded or cast onto it somewhere.


    there should hopefully be a two or three letter stamping above the "271" which would tell you the year and application but this looks like a blue block which would indicate a mid-70s or newer engine.
