Engine VIN Help

[Buda63]

I am trying to figure out what vehicle my engine is from according to the engine VIN. I was able to identify the engine code V0105TYZ as a Flint engine in January 5 from 1975 350. Can anyone help me with the VIN?

Engine VIN C7S152694

Thanks

Suffix code TYZ means it's a 1975 350.

Thanks geezer. I am trying to decode the VIN. Any ideas on that one?

Look around on that link.
There's more there on how to decipher it.
The C7S will decode to where/when it was built.
The 152694 is the last six digits of the vin of the vehicle it was installed in.

I looked around the web also but could not find anything to match up to the "C7S" . I too believe it should be Body, Year, & Vehicle Assembly Plant of the original vehicle. I suspect "S" is for St Louis, which at that time made lots of Chevrolet passenger cars, Corvettes, light & medium duty trucks.

C Chevrolet
7 last number of the year
S is the plant

The last of it is the sequential numbers

All I know

The top line is the Engine Assembly stamp- in this case Flint.
The bottom line is the Vehicle Assembly stamp- possibly St Louis. There never was a GM Vehicle Assembly plant in Saginaw.
