Default Re: 68 Vette

The K designates a McKinnon-built engine doesn´t it ? Built in April 22 as a 245 hp 350 cui (CGC) for a turbohydramatic 350 in Nova/Chevelle/Camaro/Monte Carlo/Passenger. If so then the first #1 would be the model of the car, which doesn´t make sence ! The second #1 would be the modelyear 1971. The third #1 would be the Oshawa-plant, and 539630 would be the sequencenumber of the car.
If this engine was built for an Oshawa-car then there should be four more digits on the pad, so it really doesn´t make sence.
What do you all think ?
