No way to tell from that picture, but I like the exhaust manifold! Look under the intake at the lifter valley. All 302's had "302" cast there. Pull the water pump, if there's almost no space between the water inlets and the top of the block deck, it's a 302. If there's (how much guys?) maybe 3/4" to the top of the deck, it's a 351.

But the picture is interesting! That's a C6 it is bolted to, and set up for a 4x4. Also looking at the valve covers. Could this possibly be a big block?

Looks like a 351M or 400. Not a 302/351W for sure. Not even in the same family.

How many valve cover bolts are there? It doesnt look like a 302 or 351 to me either, it looks wide like a 335 series motor

It's either 335 series or 385 series...I'm leaning towards 335 myself. Look at the shape of the valve covers, and the back of the cylinder head you can see clearly in the second pic.

I agree. Not from the Windsor family.

Makes sense to me. I can see an oil sending unit in the back of the block, too.
