Sorry I did not see the information from the POP actually posted here, so I thought I would add it.

BP0928G rear axle code - 2.73 10 bolt non posi

Vehicle assembly is probably sometime mid December but has a late September rear axle.

Your 327 block is on ebay.

Stamping seems OK to me.  Price seems awful high unless you have the car to match the block.

Anybody else?

I agree. 

The numbers and letter seem to be the correct font, but I have never seen an original without the 1 in the front. 

I added up the Z28 production, L78 production, L89 and the 427 cars (ROUGH number because I don't have an exact number of 427 cars).  

Take 2117 M22 cars divided by total above and I get about 8 percent.

Not sure this is the correct way to do this, but it is at least an estimate.

Kurt, so trans stamp is not good or good?

LOTS of cars received the 3.07 12 bolt rear axle.

From the Power Teams chart...

Yes, the standard ratio 12 bolt with the L35 396 engine and all transmission combos was the 3.07

The economy ratio 12 bolt with the LM1 or L48 350 when coupled with the HD 3 speed or M20 4 speed was the 3.07 ratio.

Thanks Petes L48

Thanks for clarifying that John.

Why?  When is the last time you had to pull the pan at a show to have them verify the crankshaft was correctly dated for your car?

It may have a casting date if it is a cast crank.  See this link for where to look.

Some may have a forging date, but I am not sure on that.
