L78 detectives...69 camaro
 
Hey guys, are there any 69 camaro L78 experts out there that may know this car?
http://www.onlinecarauctiondeals.com...aro-l78-375hp/
Years ago, this site found that the block in it was likely wrong for this car. There was a long discussion about it.
I need that same block for my L78 and last I heard it sold out of arizona classics out west.
being such a clean well restored car, maybe someone knows it.

1 pic, no VIN, no tag pics. Not much to go on. A link to that discussion?
Are you wanting to chase down the car to get the block?
Similar car was at BJ in 2015. That block was a restamp, IIRC.

Hi Kurt, let me try to locate the VIN. Here are some additional pics of the car on this page, a few cars down. I would like to get the block as in a past yenko.net discussion of this car, it was concluded it had the wrong block for the car by some experts here. That was years ago. Maybe they took out the T0505JH block by now and replaced it with a restamp.

Engine description sounds like this car but there may be other threads too?

Pete, after about a 1/2 hour of searching Paceme and Stephano posts back in 2006 (I remember them posting about it), I just found the link you already found! dang.
Yep that is the link, Kurt also posted on it. Sounds like it has a funky tag. I thought the engine was off in date.

Anyways THAT is the car I would like to find and see if the block could be had, if the car is already suspect.
