The 12 bolt in a COPO would be coded BE...Go look on the pass side axle tube facing the front and write down what the code is.

An X44 could have been a SS 350 w/o style trim. Does it have a small block heater core with the inlet/ outlet to the far right side of the cover? Small block radiator, motor mounts and tranny crossmember?

No, you got that backwards. An X11 car could be an SS350. X44 with a small block would be a base car 307 or 350 2bbl motor.

Could be a 327 also.

Did the X codes and 327 overlap? I know the 327 was phased out when the 307 appeared as the base V8. So if you had a 327 X44 car it would have to be late Dec to Jan, right?

Kurt, a technical question. On the later COPO's they started coding them with X44D80 (and X11D80) and although it is theoretically possible that you could have a base car with spoilers, has anyone actually ever documented an X44D80 trim tag on a car that was NOT a COPO or Yenko?
