Re: 1969 L-72 For sale
That was my first assumption as well. Late model 512 blocks were used as early LS-6 blocks. The crank shows 427 stroke. Everything on this motor is built to L-72 specs. 11:1 compression NOS pistons, crank, dimpled rods. I did not check to see if the jugs were notched for the 454 throw when the motor was assembled or I could give you a difinitive answer on this. Engine was originally built for a COPO in SLC, Utah, then the owner found a genuine COPO motor and put this up for sale. I bought it, did my homework and believe it to be a late model replacement 427 or CE motor.
