"(if it's indeed real)" That's what I am trying to say... that far of a time frame between cast date & machine date are way to long compaired to known real LS-6 cars. Just my opinion (for what ever that's worth).

I don't see a VIN listed anywhere. Looks like the pads (where they would/could be) were cleaned but no VIN advertised.

I sold this engine to him around 2 years ago for quite a bit less than his asking price. What he says about the motor is 100% correct. I pulled the motor from a 70 ss396 el camino that had not been touched since the late 70's. It was a standard bore with no vin number. The pad is untouched original. At the time of sale I had no idea what he is/was accused of.

Located about an hour away from me if anyone is interested. Just an FYI,I paid about the same to get my numbers matching motor back. I still think it was alot, but no one would touch my car with a ten foot pole before. Now I get pm's about once a week to buy it. So the 10K would be worth it to the owner of the car in my opinion.

If it was complete and didn't need a rebuild it would be an ok deal.Proper date coded L78s completely rebuilt go for around $6000 up here in Moose country.
