Car is 04A and here is some information I have collected. It appears cars with vin numbers before and after this vin are dated March 20th and 29th respectively. That’s a month different. I am open for any information before making a bad purchase.

As I mentioned in my other post, I am making an attempt to ensure my engine is correct. Please let me know what you think of the stamp and broach marks. Thanks for all of the help!

Thank you both for your responses. I see one says no and the other says possible? The reason I ask is, the only part of the VIN imprinted by the oil filter is 19N and it is VERY faint to see. I have tried chalk, then yellow wax marker and finally a magnified glass(best result) neither help in seeing any other numbers. I have spent hours doing searches for 1969 DZ motors including VIN, Casting date and deck stamp and It appears most engines around my VIN(within 1,000 cars) were Casting dates of E29 to E139 and stamped V0516 to V0519 so I was wondering how this could possible when the Block casting falls in the E139 range, but the deck stamp falls 10 days later than my research. All the other components seem to fall in line although all over the board.

I appreciate your input and In hopes I could ensure this is correct, as it would be an awfully big coincidence.
Thank you

Hello all,
I have a 1969 Z28 9N6529XX  The car is an 05E car but the motor has a casting date of E129 and is stamped V0529. I can only see 9N by the oil filter. The Heads are E19 and C29, The water pump is D309, The front cover is 5 69, Distributor 9D2, intake 5 9 69. Does this seem too late for the car?
