Since the prototype Z16(s) came off the end of the Baltimore production line as a 327/300hp and was converted after that at the Engineering Tech Center, it wouldn't seem to make sense that Chevrolet would have counted the two protoype cars in their production totals. Hence, that 203 number just seems right to me. Just my opinion, of course.

Great news on Dave's website continuing on!!!

Wouldn't chances be good that the ragtop may have been a converted 327/300 car too?.
And even though it's not an L37, could the L78 Post car built possibly fit into the production # puzzle somehow?.
Here's the clone ragtop thread we were all looking at a few weeks back w/ info on the real L78 Post car...still love to see more on that one! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/drool.gif.

It was supposedly authorized to be built first, and was then built at the Kansas plant. So if that's true then I'd say it got a 396 on the assembly line. If it had come out of another plant you'd probably be right.

It was built in June (at KC), a couple of months after the Z16 run had ended, so would not count in the originally authorized 200 cars. Jeff
