Default need part number help for a 63

I have bought a 63 Catalina and I've misplaced my McCarthy book. I'm wanting someone to identify what I've got.
block 513236 9773155
intake looks like 9770274
heads 9773345
The car came with a 3-speed, posi, 389? and NO power options of any kind.

I also have a motor on the ground that is date coded C227
061 heads
97?8133 block
97828? intake

Thanks, Jimmy

My Engine data book indicates:
Block is a 1964

Heads - 1964; found on many motors for 1964. Found on 326 (250 HP) and 389 ( 267,283,303,306 HP) and 421 (320 HP)

Intake for 1964 - 4V is 9770264

McCarthy's Book indicates the same for the heads

Thanks. I know now I won't need to hang onto any of this. I have someone interested in the motor. They have a 64 GTO and just want something close. I'm going to let it go. I had thought this was the motor that came in my 63 Catalina and now I know it's not. Thanks again. JD

check the block to see if it is cast for a block mounted starter.I think most 64s were.If so it is WAY more desirable than a 63.Tom
