Hey notaclue, you left out the 262, 265, 267 and 302 small-blocks...and don't forget about the first generation big-blocks: the W-series 348, 409 and Z11-427(Z11-427s' were W-series engines and were extremely rare-only 50 were produced)...The 396 was replaced by the 402 in 1970 but it was still called 396 at first...and they were both big-block engines just like the second generation big-block 427 and 454...

I'm not a Chevy guy, but I believe the 396, 402, 427, and 454 were all in the same family. The early versions were dropped leaving the 454 in production.

Nothing really! They had the 283, 307, 327, 396 small blocks and the 427 big block. Now its the 305,350,400 small block and 454 big block basically. They also built the 502 for racing purposes.

the 396 was a great engine, however chevy went with the 454, and it became much more popular.

most of them had the 350, just look at the serial number and take it to the auto parts store and they can look it up for you, it sholud be located on the block by the oil pan.
