Ralph.............It's very easy to put together a factory correct appearing L-89 car.....If you were in the process of buying this car, you would welcome the experience,knowledge and critiqueing that is available here to verify the pedigree of your future Investment......since you already own the car, don't take it the wrong way......But........It is what it is..........

Seems like some questions are not going to be easily answered.

On my 68 L89 it had a suffix on the pad that indicated aluminum heads, like Kim states. I would think if it was born with those heads the motor would be stamped as such. The POP also was coded.

I don't usually chime in on these discussions as a rule , but when selling a car on this ite without solid documentation to support your claim, you are are exposing yourself to the vast knowledge base of the members and their opinions. I have found, in most cases, these
members reperesent the best available information that we currently have.
