Re: how to decode my engine

TKB 76 350 Truck 165 LS-9 4-Brl
TKB 77 350 Truck 165 LS-9 4-Brl
TKB 79 350 Truck 165 LS-9 4-Brl
TKB 92 350 Truck 210 L-05 TBI

So you ruled the last one out due to block casting number. 76/77/79 350.

The C7Z I have not seen before. Assuming the rest of it holds true to form, I would guess the 7 is your '77 date, and Z is the Fremont plant, which did assemble GMC trucks.
