1969/1970 L78 nova questions????

[todd micheal]

Stefano, Thanks for writting back. My car was built in 1970 febuary 4th week But it is a 1969 body style. Shouldnt that be a 854 casting block Because of the build date.The car came with a 272 block with no vin on pad but correct suffix for car dated march 21st 1969.Last owner had no info on the block, but checked out at the machine shop.I though it would be to late for the car the 272 block???? Would a 290 casting block be correct?? dated 1971. Please any help would be appreciated. Thanks again.
