Default Block Casting Number

Buddy just bought a '72 BB that has a engine block casting number of 3999289. Is this correct for a '72? The VIN on the pillar and engine match. Is there a good online source for checking Chevy casting numbers? couldn't find this one in the NCRS book he has.

Thanks,
Jerry

Jerry,
3999289 is the correct block casting number for a BB in 72.
