Decoding/Numbers / help my project

« on: June 08, 2007, 02:51:26 AM »

I am beginning the restoration of a 67 rs camaro. I would like to rebuild the car as close to original as possible with the exception of color (butternut yellow). According to the cowl tag, it was a power glide car with the ralley sport option. I believe the car has the original rear end, but the motor and trans are long gone. Here is my first series of questions; Is there any way of telling the engine type? Do the engine block code numbers have to perfectly match the cars vin? Will any powerglide do or is there a specific one? It would be sweet if I could find the original motor and trans for the car. If someone would like to help the vin is 124377N156056, odd thing though the cowl tag reads 56022 not 56056,  build date 12c, I think this means 12th month 3rd week of 66 since production ends in August. The 3rd line on the cowl reads E 2MG 3SDL.

Thanks D. Smith.
