I have not yet determined why Block partial VIN is wrong, but I strongly believe it was not NORWOOD applied...

Well that is an easy question. There is no way the partial block VIN should be different from tranny VIN. When the tranny was mated to the engine the SAME gang stamp was used to stamp both the tranny and engine. It was stamped by ONE individual. I find it hard to believe that the two numbers might have fallen out or that someone forgot to put them in during the stamping process. I don't think Norwood changed there stamping process from the previous years.

It might have been Scott Norwood applied. He did miss wide right one time.

I think it's shame really because when I first saw the pictures I thought the car looked great.
