VIN vs Assembly date

I've talked to this guy on the phone, and he used to have a company called ASL in Nevada.
I was trying to get better pics of an 837 alt. he says he pulled off his COPO Camaro.

Never did get any pics and I told him what I thought about his business practices.

Don Dorfman?

Think he said his last name was "Long", not Dorfman.

No its not Don, its Greg Long. I believe he had a company years ago called Durability Plus. He told me at the time they could cast any number I wanted in a block, what a way to do business, building fake crap. He will gladly send you a fuzzy picture of one of his current original/restamped fake parts on Ebay. How is this guy still in the parts business???

Check out his feedback. He MUST be selling reproduction parts. 163 intakes with the same exact pictures, finned hipo balancers with the same pictures, list goes on. Buyer beware.
