"CE under warranty" is better in my opinion than a correctly dated block that came from another car. That CE block was given only to your chevelle from GM Warranty. Wilma is right for once or maybe twice.

Not sure why but most buyers are only ok w a ce if its dated before the car ,which really defeats the purpose of having a ce.

Most car buyers and car enthusiasts are not even educated on CE blocks....which explains your statement.

I thought about which way to go for a while the original owner kept every dealer receipt for clutch adjustment, lifter adj, tune ups etc etc. The one receipt he didnt keep was the engine change. I do have a letter from him saying it dropped a valve under warranty and the dealer installed the engine. I know its got to be true because every part is the dated part off the original 69 engine but the short block and one head. If I had that one receipt saying it was changed under warranty I wouldnt be changing it. It still has the original motor mounts.

70 L78 Block...
Our 70 Gold L78 was punched out to 427...I had all the cylinders checked for thickness, they were fine, plenty of meat. It was about the best running of all the cars...stock motor, flat intake, no tricks...made about 440hp. on the dyno.
It was mated to the correct CW coded TH400 with factory 6 lug converter and 3.55 rear...it would really run. I miss it  -wilma **still think you should keep the CE motor with the car...

I would also have to vote also to leave it in. If that is the CE block that was installed back in the day by the dealer,...It should be with the car, and I would definetly be more impressed with that . Hey that’s only my opinion though, Your car , do what you want..

OK the correct engine is going in and this one is going under the bench to stay with the car so its not for sale any more. Thanks everyone for your opinions.
