There's easy ways to tell a difference between the 250 and 292, but I can't remember. @Termite_Delight is pretty familiar with the six bangers I believe.

I googled the casting number 473483, it's a 1975-79 250ci.

I don't know much about 6 cyl engines. My main interest is the 4cyl Chevrolet's from 1914 to 1928.

The date code is behind the dipstick tube K= Nov, 6?=day, then year 0=1980.

292s have much larger side covers than the 250s,230s, and the 194s

292’s also have the fuel pump behind the motor mount, 250’s (and 230, 194)have it in front of the motor mount.

My corporate blue, '78 292. Chances are the OP has an integral head 250 as well.

I have a complete '25 engine in my doodlebug,Presently stuck with atf and acetone in the cylinders. I am curious to its value as the doodlebug is just yard art and i would be willing to sell parts but don't know what the market for the engine would be.
