My understanding (with some new info this past weekend from Donny, perhaps?) was that no L72 cars were built, although a few engines were built. This was due to the plan of having the L71 available till GM's ban on multiple cabs on its passenger cars.

Yeah, I have had a few leads in the past on 67 L72 coded big car blocks, but they never got anywhere. Check out this scan I made out of the 67 owners manual a while back showing a 6000RPM redline tach. Kind of makes you wonder!

It was just a random owners manual I decided to page through one day. I assume that picture is in all editions.

I always understood that F40 was the heavy duty suspension, and F41 was more of a sport suspension, because it had the sway bars. I don't have any of my literature handy right now though.

That does not look like a Z24 car to me.
