'72 Camaro #s SS396/4-sp, Nice Docs

[scuncio]

Must be a pretty rare car with the Norwood strike happening in '72. Engine stamp looks pretty good but it would be nice to see a better resolution picture.

that engine stamp looks awful

[THNDER]

Engine stamp looks legit.

so is this stamp good or bad?

I asked for a better picture. The spacing of the suffix code is tough to see, and the broach marks aren't clear enough.

I think a way better pic is needed to determine anything about that stamping.
A complete pic of the pad would help a lot.
