Title: 69 ebay Z engine stamp
Post by: 6667ss138 on December 19, 2015, 08:00:43 PM

The engine block assembly stamp on this car is the exact same date as mine. V0528DZ  I see a major difference, especially with the 5 compared to mine.  I'm skepitcal of this one or could there have been differences on a same day stamp.
Trim tag ok??
Unfortunately no VIN to post.

Would have liked it better with the 727 ivory interior!

Poor job on the brake lines (plus many more uninformed resto errors) , kills the whole look under the hood.

I am not sure about the  5  on the pad, so I cant say for sure,  maybe some experts will take a look.
It looks like a nice Z28 that has several things that need to be  corrected  for  factory originality , or,  maybe the owner did not care about total originality , many don't, and he wanted it done  this way, who knows.

Is it just me or can you see the remnants of another stamp inside the "O"?  Looks like an "I"?

Cant see the square headed pipe plug either? 

Pretty car though.

That is exactly one of the other things that I saw.. I was just waiting to see if anyone else noticed it too.

Engine pad pic is not the greatest, but I am not thrilled.

I agree with Stingr ................Looks a lot like a Tonawanda block (no galley plug).
