There's a '70 L-78 Nova on e-bay right now, it's not a good picture but it does look simular.

Southside now that you have good pics its pretty clear the broach markings are fine back where the headgasket was, so it has not been decked, sure looks like it's nice and smooth and shiney where your stampings are, you can figure this out at this point right?

[southside]

It had paint on the pad, scratches are from razor blade and it's shinny because I've wiped it 1000 times with different cleaners. There is a sleeve in #4 cyl. so it must have been lightly decked at one time, I still have .020 deck clearence with the Speed pro pistons that are in it.

I was of the understanding that when these things where stamped the folks doing it where not splicing atoms. Did they really put that much effort into getting them all lined up ect..? Maybe we are reading a bit much into it? To read my numbers on my L78 i had to clean and even sand a bit to see the whole numbers, so it has a bit of a shine to it.

You can wipe that area 100,000 times with any cleaner , and the broach marks will still be there.
