How can I tell if a block is a Dart block?? I was told it is but it has WCP which means it is a windsor.... So am I just a dumb dumb? I am also told its a 347 any way to tell without ripping it apart?

The cast finish will be very nice.
The oil pan will be wide and deep to clear the main caps.
Considerably heavier.
6 bolt holes for cylinderheads.

Off the top of my head...

The block will say DART on it.

Likely, the 347 uses a 3.40" stroke. When the #1 piston is at TDC, the #4 piston will be at BDC. If you measure from the top of the deck to the top of the cylinder on piston 4, it will measure 3.40".
