All the dates line up... the axle is a 2nd day April the engine build date is March 29th... What is the casting number on the block? Do you have a photo of the Vin on the block?
The broach marks on the deck look a little heavy. I would like to hear what some other guys think... The car should most likely be an 04A or 04B build date...

Do not have casting numbers on the block yet.. What is an 04A or 04B? Thank you for your response. What do you mean by the broach marks being little heavy?
The car has no history or documentation. I'm trying to buy the car as number matching and this is all the info I have.
Thanks again.

They looked a little heavy for me...

QX axle is a JL8 3.73 rear...
Does the car have rear discs?
Also get some pictures of the ends of the axle tubes up close to where the wheels...

The broach marks look home made to me. The front calipers look wrong. As I recall the front JL8 is left and right specific ? As in it only has one boss for the hose to screw into. That one has two bosses, one below the other. Normally there is also a bracket and a short J shaped steel line with spring around it to keep a distance between the hot caliper and the rubber brake line.

See the difference of the lines that run lenghtwise down the block... on the deck? On the 0329 engine they are not straight nor are they very uniform...
The broach marks are very straight by virtue of the process...

Thank you Gentlemen, this car is a frame off restoration cross ram, after market cross ram but absolute beautiful restoration. Also four wheel disk brakes I don't believe to be original. Orange rs white interior, white stripes, with supposedly matching numbers but no documentation. What kind of value would you put on the car today?
