Default Re: 1969 Camaro ZL-1 #51


The original short block from ZL-1 #34 was apparently replaced under warranty. The block was never damaged inside and even less was it 'intentionally damaged by a GM rep' or scrapped. It actually ended up in a roundy-round car. When I found it, it was painted completely orange with Moroso valve covers and it had the big offset oilpan, gear drive and all 454 guts.



the VIN on the #51 block would have been down by the oil filter...the original VIN was barely noticable on block #34....I doubt any GM rep. would have even looked for it or even known if it was there. And I seriously doubt any GM rep would have 'intentionally destroyed' any parts.(although I guess it is possible)
