Default 1967 late L78 block or 1968 CE L78 block

i have a 1967 4K camaro dated 07B (very late). Im looking for a 323 casting numbered block with a tight time frame of probably last week of June to 2nd week of July.

if i don't get very far with that then i can use a 1968 dated 323 casting CE block.

of course all need to be L78 blocks; 4 bolt main, etc.

please let me know if you have one or know where i might locate one. this is a very, very, very rare car that deserves and will have the right stuff put on it.

many thanks,

kasey

I have notes on some 67 4k cars and a 07B on my list has the 406 block with a TO624 assy. and a E-31-7 cast dates.
Another car has a 323 block with a T0705 assy. and a F-8-7 cast date. VIN 7N252794.
Sorry I don't have the VIN on the first one.
Steve.

Interesting Steve. I would have thought by that late in the run they would have had the 323 exclusively, but what do i know?

I suppose that's a good thing to know that I could use either casting for my car, considering you've seen both with original cars.

Many thanks.

Now, does anybody know anybody that might have either castings?

There was no first in first out rule so the 323 and 406 blocks were mixed during transition.
Don't give up I'm in the same boat.
