Arrugh!

It's been 24 hours, and I have managed bite my tongue.

Over the 43 years or so of chasing ZL-1 info, I have seen many blocks and complete engines. I have never seen a casting date/sequence number that looked anything like that. That spans one of the earliest Winters castings [4] to one of the last [587].

I have been keeping a log of the info; so did Bill Porterfield. Got a copy of his information recently and added it to mine. Suprise, casting #131 was already in the log with a date of 2 5 69. And yes, it was built up as a production ML code engine and installed in one of the cars.

Even if I didn't know that, four earlier castings have later dates.
