Cross flags look black (396) not red (427) to me. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

I had a 67 396 block with a suffix code that I could not find in any book. After I put it on eBay (with a 67 Chevelle) someone emailed me a picture of a P-O-P with the same suffix on it, and the orginal buyer was the Illinois Dept. of Public Safety. After more research it turned out that the code was for a 350 HP (Holley carb) 396 for full size police car use only. I guess the cops wanted more than a 325HP 396 with a quad, but the guys holding the purse-strings wouldn't spring for the cost of putting 427's in the fleet. So maybe this 66 has a special 396 under the hood too?

If they had put the 427s in them the boys in the maintenence shop would have swapped them all out for L35s and gone racin' with the 427s!
