Welcome to CHR!

This is what you have:

V = Flint
04 = April
11 = 11th day of month
TY = 1978, 305CI, LG3 engine. This particular one was a 145 horsepower 2 barrel used in the Pontiac Grand Prix.

This a real basic 305. Are you using starter motor bolts? If not, go buy these:

Dorman Starter Mounting Bolts 45640. They’re 7 bucks at Schuck’s, O’Reily,s, or AutoZone.

Again, Welcome.
