this engine is in my neighbor's 65 Corvette convertible and the vin sequence doesn't match the vin under the dash, thus is isn't the correct engine
that said the stamp reads 18R131759 to808hc HC equates to a 327 - 275 hp powerglide (what the car actually is, a low horse PG), assuming 68 what was this engine originally in? (the 18R part ...), ok R = Arlington, so this was a B body Chevy? (Impala / Caprice) thanks in advance

I think R is Arlington TX. They made Chevelles, impalas Biscaynes and such.
