Not possible. Clearly a restamp. No DZ engines were built at Tonawanda.

Thanks for the info on this car!  Are we absolutely positive that there should not be a Tonawanda built 302?

If JohnZ says there were none then I would take that to the bank.

Cool, just heard of a couple others can't figure out why even if it's a restamp, why there's a T? What would be more important? Vin or engine stamp?

Sixblade,

We can not reveal ever little detail about everything.  Restampers look on this site too, unfortunately.  We don't want to educate them any more so they make better fakes.  Understand?

Why there's a T? Because someone screwed up when they restamped it.
