Title: 3970010 with V0107DZ stamp
Post by: southernx201 on February 19, 2019, 03:44:37 AM

I am guessing a fake. Can an expert please confirm?  Block Casting 3970010 casting date appears to read F48 (could be F40 or F49).  Pad stamp is painted but is clear V0107DZ. Partial VIN on pad is 19N607332, but characters do not align. X33 on tag. Full VIN is 124379N607332.

The DZ engine application stamp looks like a HS kid did it....  NOT factory!

I believe the car should have the 3932388 block with 4 bolt mains for that time frame.
