Default 69 Z28 Same casting date as pad date.

Has anybody ever seen the same date? Hugger Orange 69 Z28 RS in NC on EBAY. Casting says C-12-9 and pad is V0312DZ.

I believe I have seen two. Also had a block that was only one day apart.

not the norm, but possible.

I've had same day cast/build dates on small blocks. As long as everything looks good, don't worry about it. The built them "warm" sometimes. :-)
