I am having a dilemma. From what I have seen/been told, 1969 427 L72 COPO motors came with 7115 crankshaft. I have also seen COPO motors for sale with 6223 crankshaft claiming it is correct for that motor. The little bit of research I have done makes me think that the 7115 crank only came with L88/ZL1 motors. Could someone set me straight on which one came with the motor, 'cause I'm confused...which isn't hard to do.

I have a 7115 crank (got it with a #512 block) with smaller counterweights than those on the L88/ZL1-cranks, so there are at least two different types of it.

The other #512 shortblock I have has a 6223 crank in it. I have never had the chance to look at the crank that is in my original engine in the car, but I thought most COPO 9561 engines had the 6223 ?
