Default Re: Van Nuys Chevelle engine pad stamp pic?

Rick and I have both been surprised by this finding, but we'd still like to see a few more examples. When I had my Daytona Yellow LS6 I read that it should have the "0L" prefix instead of the "70L" prefix and because of that and some fairly deep broach marks, many thought it was a restamp. I felt confident that the stamp looked legit to me, but couldn't explain the "70L" or the deep broach marks. So I began looking for cars from the same build range and found examples of the broach marks quite often on untouched blocks. Then I found this new LS6 and it had both as well! I went looking again and found this fellow who responded to one of my Team Chevelle questions.... http://community.webshots.com/photo/...14073752wrRNgy

Click on his album and then on his tranny pic to see the VIN stamp.

I won't post the LS6 pads because I am negotiating on one of them and the other belongs to another member here, so he can post it if he cares to.

I definitely believe that the "70L" is correct and have yet to see the "0L" on a Chevelle...maybe a way for Van Nuys to differentiate Camaros from Chevelles???
