69 L78 Chevelle owners,

I just obtained a standard bore 272 4 bolt main. Dated A 22 9
TO124JD...(4-Speed) VIN is 394441. I`d rather first ettempt to locate the car with its original engine, before I decide what to do. I know if I was missing my L78 block I would love to have it found.

Dan.

Nice Dan

What Assembly Plant letter is in the VIN#?
A-B-G-K- or Z?
It could be from an Elcamino too.

Date is close, but VIN is wrong

Good of you to post it Dan.

Rick,

Kansas...what was even more interesting for me was that it is only 7 days from my other 69 Chevelle. A 22 9 vs. A 28 9

God that's close.
In 1969,Kansas Leeds plant was one of the few who built the Elcamino too,so it could be either.

Dan
Is the vin number stamped upside down as the 70 chevelles?
I belive all the kansas cars in 70 were stamped upside down.
