Re: odd engine block pad stamp
I know why someone would want to change a L35 to a L34.Why would the N in the sn be messed up?

Re: odd engine block pad stamp
-----All the small numbers are messed up because they were added by someone other than the factory. The numbers wernt gang stamped just for starters. Look at the first 6. There could have been an indentation where the N was before the N was stamped........Bill S

Re: odd engine block pad stamp
Remember this block was kicked around for 9 months and had a broken ear,Its sure to have scars on the decks.Since it has the 499 distributor it's most likly a 350HP

Re: odd engine block pad stamp
Something's amiss here! This engine has a '499 with a
4-speed? '499's were used with L/34 automatics and of course L/78's. That black-on-black-on-black looks sweet with the N/66 wheels & louvered hood - huh? |

Yeah it's one number off.Probably using left over parts,like the block.

Re: odd engine block pad stamp
Its a hot looking camaro for sure, BB a/c vert. He says it had the matching vin down by the oil filter so it may have the origanal L35 325 hp.
