5153843 is the casting number. The actual part number is P5153862 (if it's a HEMI). That's a fine block. It's a gray iron block with 4.5" finished hone and it should have bushed lifter bores.

That's a great block for a 572 street engine.

Although these blocks were supposedly ready for assembly, they almost never turned out that way. So plan on doing a line hone and decking. Also check that the number 5 main cap studs are marked with ARP. Early versions of these blocks used cheap Chinese studs for #5 main that just didn't hold up.
