That thread really clarifies what the owner was unable or unwilling to provide for us from the very beginning of this thread. No wild goose chase for me on this one.

Re: 1969 NOVA SS L-89 ONE OF 311 UNRESTORED ORIGINAL
JH code? Then it's an L78. The assembly plants didn't send spare engine components (e.g. alum heads) in the trunk. Those are dealer or owner added.
That took a lot to get to this point!

Re: 1969 NOVA SS L-89 ONE OF 311 UNRESTORED ORIGINAL
Did anybody notice the lack of screw in plugs on the ends of the heads? This car would have to be a very late production dated car or these are over the counter replacement heads from what I understand.

THE ENGINE DATE CODE IS TO224 JH 19W4336XX [/ QUOTE ]okay dokey then.... we have now been told it's a 375 steel head motor by the owner since it's a JH, so his advertised lingo is not accurate, in fact it's downright misleading. So, it's impossible to be one of the 311 L89 engines built... with that said, it doesn't matter how much money anybody has, it's a mis-advertised, overpriced, steel headed L78 car, in great condition. It would have sold by now had it been advertised honestly, and correctly, because I would have probably bought it. And, I have the cabbage to do it. In a drawer, right now. And further, thats a 100% fact. However, I would have required at least a legit POP to back up any claims. But, I don't do business with ANYBODY that misleads the public, and allows this thread to go 5 pages without correction and clarification... At this point, it doesn't really matter how nice the car is, it's just another 375 steel headed car.... Good day, Jim
