this was done during the initial casting of the block and heads. it tells you what car it was on and size of motors and the size of cc the head is. some block casting and not very correct. i have a bbc 396 that has acasting of " hi perf pass truck" there is no such thing. just " hi perf pass", or" truck". head casting a alot more accurate tho.
hope this helps.
This number will tell you what year and what moter the heads will fit.There are books put out for this purpose.

I don't believe 378999 is a valid casting number for a block or head, however, check the website,www.mortec.com, for SBC casting number information. For Chevy cylinder head specs, try this one: http://www.73-87.com/chevy_ids/sbheads.htm And, another good site for block suffix codes, block casting numbers, and cylinder head specs: http://www.chevy-camaro.com/chevy-camaro-engine-codes.asp Thanks, dave

The casting number 10114156 corresponds to a cylinder head that was produced by General Motors for the 454 cubic inch big block engine. This specific head was used primarily in the late 1970s to the early 1980s, specifically from 1976 to 1985. It is important to note that while the casting number indicates the head's design, the actual year of production may vary depending on the specific application.
The one I have with that block number (4097080) came from a Hyster forklift. Not sure, but believe it is the 188cid (not the 153cid).
