Typo?  1969 Camaro vins start at 500001, right?

68 VIN, Feb cast block with an early May assembly date, late May heads and a June intake?  I don't think so.

so this is a 68' block?? thought "HB" was a 69 specific year stamp?

The issue is none of the #'s make sense.
Can you recheck the VIN? Can you post or send me a pic of the engine pad?
