The block casting number indicates that this is a 240. But do you know if it has been rebuilt. The reason I bring this up is cause a 300 crank and rods will fit into a 240 block. If you are unsure and the motor is out of the vehicle the easiest way to tell is to take off the oil pan and look at the crank casting number. If it is 1la then it is a 240 if any other number its a 300.
Good Luck
Bob
