Re: 1970 L78 block, pistons, rods and 6223 steel c
Interesting dates, the block was cast in October and the engine went in a June or July car. Do you have any history on the engine? Mark

Not an isolated case.
There are at least two other 1970 L-78 Novas I have seen with this same engine casting,vehicle production date.

Re: 1970 L78 block, pistons, rods and 6223 steel c
No, I don't have any history. I can tell you that the front pad looks original to me and has not been restamped or altered in any way. I have had blocks that have been 7 months from the date of the casting of the block. This block is the farthest out yet that I have owned. I have had them both ways. One I had was stamped the next day for a 69 Z28 302 block.
