Re: Help Identifying 2 blocks
The bottom one is a Y block engine. I would guess a 292 cubic inch. Could be a 272 or 312 cu. in. It came out of a truck with the exhaust pipe running around the front. I would guess the year somewhere from 1956 to 1964. Sorry, I can't help you with the numbers.

Re: Help Identifying 2 blocks
Mechhound is correct, a "Y" block. Should have casting numbers on it, either "Bxxx" or "Cxxx". B = '50s. C = '60s. COULD be a '54 or 5 239, as well.
The first pic is certainly an "FE". The bore and stroke should be measured to be ceratin WHICH FE. 332, 352, 360 (light truck only), 390, 406, 410, 427 and 428 are the most common, there are some others, obscure...). If the crank "snout" is 1 1/4" in diameter, it could be a 330, 361 or 391 (HD truck only). Jim

Chances are, it's a truck unit. You will notice it has 'ribs' cast into the walls of the block. These were added because the FE block tooling was getting worn-out by this time. For some reason, the machine tooling life was extended in this manner. The truck blocks had some nice heavy duty parts, like steel cranks, but were low compression, as low as 7.4:1
