Camo
The casting numbers is from 1980 to 1985, 4 bolt main truck motor.
Now that it's a truck motor the rest will take me a bit more time but  I can tell you it was built in Flint on the 7th of January 1985

Okay you had me thinking so went in to the other details
Casting number 14010207 was us d for truck engines and are 4 bolt mains
But I noticed a small detail that had more infor so chased it through
Engine is indeed out of a vet
Details are
1986
350 ci
Manual transmission
Alloy heads
Oil cooled
Tuned port injection
Code in L98
235 horse power.
9.5.1 compression
coupe
And it was the 207th one built

Sorry about the initial mistake but vets did use truck motors and modified them up to suit.
If you need more infor give me a pm and you can call me
