I bought this block a few years back from a guy that didnt know what it came out of. Was wondering if anyone could help with year its from. I think its a roller block which makes me wonder why I am running into issues with the lifters coming up past the galley holes, but I want to find out for sure on the block before I go any farther.
The numbers on the side are 53020006-360.
Thanks in advance for your help

89-91 LA 360 block that comes with the spider mounts for the hydraulic roller lifters....
 
I rechecked the numbers and that is the correct amount of zeros.

I also have a block with this #. Interested in finding out the year/specs.

Sorting Out: Chrysler’s 238, 318, 360 Engines, Doug Anderson, Automotive Rebuilder, April 2000
CHRYSLER 360 BLOCKS

1992
This is a transition year with a rather unusual 360 block. It looked like a Magnum on the outside with the three flat, drilled pads along with the old style ears, but it was still the early engine on the inside with the oil holes in the cam and block. It’s a 53020006 casting.
1993-’97
The 360 Magnum came out in ’93, one year after both the 238 and 318 Magnum engines were introduced. It used the 53020006 block that came with the three flat, drilled pads and the oil style ears. It still had the oil holes in both deck surfaces, but they were not used because the rockers were oiled through the pushrods.
