Re: Why the overbore from 396 to 402
The three letter suffix began on the new 402 CID blocks.
Their cylinders were overbored by .032. Example: Code JH is 396. Code CJH is 402.(or 400 as Kurt mentioned) I have seen late built 1969 Chevelles with the three letter suffix block. Kurt S You say no 1969 Camaros have been found with the three letter suffix,even thought the 1969 Camaro model was carried over late into the 1970 model run. I would have thought those later built Camaros recieved a three letter suffix,as the Chevelles did. Anyone know why they didn't?
