What a strangely optioned car with an LS6, M22 and the 3.08 Economy Rear Axle. I’m actually surprised that it was even built because the 2.20 First Gear & 3.08’s aren’t exactly friendly with each other, especially with that wide duration camshaft!

I had a '69 Z from Toronto Courtesy, I have this if the Vette's new owner happens to be a forum member.
Those 3.08s were perfect for using up all those speedo numbers on late night Banzai runs on the 401 I bet :)

4:56 would absolutely wake that car up. Hone a drive would help also. This is gonna bid for giant money.

I respectfully disagree and believe it looks to be OEM.
I don't have many LS6 pads in my library and none with the same build date. I see many similarities with other LS6 pads with different build dates and certainly with other VIN stamps in the same range.

I believe It to be a real stamp as well

The car is owned by a good friend of mine. I believe he had the pad verified by Al Grenning. It is a nice car!

I take back the restamp comment if Al certified the stamping. It really looks very fresh but maybe from a recent rebuild. I love the car and its a rare one. Its a rocket ship.

There’s now a dark cloud over this car for anyone that researches it and finds this thread about the disputed block stamping.

I suggest we delete this post if there’s general consensus that the stamp is legit.
