Has the date and code stamp. Does not have a VIN #. I'll check the date code when I get home and can look at my paperwork.

Albert, I just sent you a PM. Is that a coincidence? If not, that's pretty incredible.

I guess Albert is at home relaxing in front of the tv.

An interesting thing about 6/27/1969. If my memory is correct, my parents got married on Saturday, June 14, 1969. This means, my engine block was stamped on a Friday. Could explain the lack of VIN stamp. I'm fairly positive it's never been decked and is not a restamp. Obviously not certain, but could explain things.

If my grandfather were still with us, I could ask him what the heck they were doing in the plant on a Friday. I'm sure he'd have some wisecrack about that.

The L78 will run as good as your 427 IMO.
