I have a feeling I may be asking the impossible, but there are many on this site that know much more then I do. I have a '72 455 block with stamping 32M435381 and I'm trying to find out what model Olds it came out of. Is there any way to research??

Thanks in advance.

 

A full size RWD car. For the 1972 model year, Lansing used 100001 through 400000 for A-body cars and 400001 through 700000 for B/C-body cars. Toros were 700001 and up. Note the RH column, "Starting Serial No."

 

& to add some additional detail:
1972 model year Lansing built Oldsmobiles (just under 390,000 cars)
A-bodies 2M100001 to ~2M258000 (157,958)
B/C-bodies 2M400001 to ~2M580000 (180,319)
Toronado 2M700001 to ~2M749000 (48,900)

 

Thanks guys!! This site is a wealth of knowledge.
