I learn something new every day but I thought the engine code should be CKO for the 375hp/402 Nova. I thought the CTY code was for Chevelle and Camaro only.

Nope..all three L-78 equipped cars shared those codes,as did other engine suffix codes among vehicles.

I've yet to see/hear of any L-78 engine be backed by a CF trans from the factory.Can you show us examples?
The warranty issues alone would've frightend them off.

What's the casting date on your 3:31?

The 'A' and the '3' check out. The 'A' on the TT is for a black interior to match the black seats. The '3' indicates 3 exterior moldings, drip rail, door frame, and rocker.

Also, check the fuel line clips for the 1 or 2 fuel lines.
