Default Re: Engine stamping...comments ?

I've seen a couple of Camaros with w/O numbers as high as the mid 800's but they are by far the exception. Not many days go above the low to mid 600s. Of course thats not to say that there weren't higher numbers out there, just I don't have the info (and I only collect Camaro tag numbers). LA only built around 31,000 Camaros between September of 68 and the end of production which is essentially the last week of April 1969 when the plant went on strike (even though some cars in process at the end of April were actually built in June and July). 31000 cars over 8 1/2 months of production is 3600 a month, 850 a week, 215 a day (assuming 5 day work weeks). Norwood made the remaining 213,000 Camaros. Norwood made about 950 cars a day (at capacity) running two shifts which is roughly 4500 cars a week max, 18,000 a month (usually they only made around 14,000 to 15,000 a month though).
