SBC id: vo403tdt

found a small block chevy with a front code of VO403TDT which doesn't appear in my print ID sheet. orange motor with big balancer,casting number is for a 350. Has some funky accesory brackets. What did this come from?

 

I just ran it through google. Nothing!?! What are the cast numbers on the back?

 

TDT is 155 hp 1980 350 c-20 cab chassis or bus

 

I'm thinking it is a Volvo marine engine. The orange color isn't Volvo, but the "funky brackets" and the "V" code sort of make me think that. Look on the side of the bellhousing area by the oil filter (drivers side) is there a metal tag there ?

Give us some pictures of the brackets.

OP, did you hit this link? http://www.nastyz28.com/sbchevy/sblock.php

Btw the "V" denotes Flint factory.
