68 Baldwin Motion Camaro going to Barrett

[bergy]

We've seen a passenger high performance coded engine in another Motion Camaro. Remember - many of these cars started out as small blocks. So, they needed a complete long block for conversion.

This car has the original coded 4.56 rear end it was built by GM with. Could you get that rear end with a small block?

The description change done was with respect to cowl tag date and mileage only. You are limited in the number of words you can include.

No offense but without a partial vin or a pop, paperwork etc it’s hard to make a comment like that as gospel. If there is docs or anything of that nature I won’t say another word but to date nothing has been presented.


Not crapping on the car either. Just voicing an opinion.

No offense taken, I simply ask what 68 camaro could you could get a 4.56 gear from the factory? Sorry maybe I did not ask but forget the car, what was a factory 4.56 available in?

Z and L78. My point is how do we know 100% the diff has not been out of the car.?. No paperwork correct? Diffs don't have partials so you tell me. If someone has proof I won't say another word. Its very possible that is the original diff but I haven't seen photos nor am I interested in purchasing. I am simply asking questions. Seems like a lot of folks are pushing the car or is it me? I hope its real, I hope it brings a bigillion dollars. I just like stone cold facts.

It has a BB heater box from looking at the pictures. I'd suspect it was originally a L78 car based on the rear gear...but easiest way to tell would be the fuel line.

I love the car! Just surprised after thinking about it that it has a big car L72 in it...when I always thought the over-the-counter engines would not have had a production line suffix code for the engine.

I guess I'm just curious if this is common when long block engines were replaced say under warranty. If not where did Motion get their engines from then?

Wouldn't those part numbers for engines referenced in an earlier post be "CE" coded?
