'70 LS6 Chevelle pad pics or rubbings?

**Zedder** · #1 11-23-2004, 06:17 AM

I know this is probably a long shot, but here goes anyway...I am buying a '70 LS6 Chevelle and wondered if anyone has any engine pad stamping pics or rubbings they could post or email me to compare stampings with the motor in the car I am buying? It is an Atlanta car built in mid January with an M22. Thanks in advance for any help any of you can provide this newbie to the LS6 world

I think this is an assembly line motor that was sold as an over the counter crate motor. It was never stamped with a vin and is coded as a 450/454 with an auto trans assembled on the 11th day of March '70. Notice the use of the "I" as the second "1" in the 11.

This is a 450/454 coded as a 4 speed assembled on the 10th of March '70 and installed in my Kansas built car. I realize these are not from the same plant as the car you are buying but the hp code and assembly dates are all stamped at Tonowanda. Hope this helps.

Thanks Dave, I really appreciate that

I really wanted to see the font on the CRV stamp, so you were very helpful! In fact, so helpful, I bought the car this afternoon

If anyone else has pad pics I'd still love to see them. Mark

Mark, Congratulations on the new ride!

I'm guessing this is a done car so how about some pics? If not, a brief description would be nice.
