looked at the car engine suffix codes which are two or three letters, but no factory installed blocks start with X as the first letter. There was an EX and other codes, just no X_. anyway, there are lots of codes on chevies, so get us a block casting no., date code, assembly code, engine suffix codes, and I can help you out.

3935440....396.......68-69...2 or 4 bolt
The other code is T0509??, The motor is from the Tonawanda motor factory built May 9th. You have to look further for the exact year. There is a block casting date usually on the back ledge passenger side and will look like D 12 9 for April 9, 1969. It will be some date before the build date obviously. The last two could be CE which means it is a Crate Engine or warranty replacement engine.

The 5440 blocks were also used in the base 325HP Chevelles in 68. Even though they were used in pick-ups there are still considered pass motors. If it's a core then $500 or less if a good stock runner maybe $1000 is my guess.

truck blocks have the word 'truck' cast into them. lowers the value when in a car even if block casting no. was correct.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
