The block is a 79 date code and the 2T crank is a 360 cast iron with a 3.50 stroke. That's a pretty late casting also. I'm still not sure what bore the block is but it sounds like a 360. The best way to tell is to measure the cyl bore. 360/390/361/391 blocks have a stock 4.05 bore. If you think the engine is still in stock trim with the 2T crank then it's a 360. G.
