Default JL8 Brake Caliper

Yesterday, I was working on my 67 BB Vette, and noticed this stamping on one of my brake calipers. Were JL8 calipers stamped?

Steve Shauger's new 69 Z28 has JL8's on it, albeit a service package install. Perhaps he can speak to it Lawrence. Otherwise, Steve can sell the car back to me and I'll check for you
