[ QUOTE ]
Motor Cast in first week January, built in Feb, but the car is 04 C, 3rd week in April, that's over a 3 month spread from casting to build. It does not say weather the motor is the original one. Is that spread too far for a L78 car? Looks like a great project if the motor is the original one. Rich [/ QUOTE ] Rich, I have a original L/78 engine out of a '69 SS Nova that is over 5 months spread between the cast date & engine assembly date. It can happen..... Nuch

I thought that might be the case. In this case, the owner is on crutches and the VIN at the oil filter has not been checked yet, so this is not for sure a 100% # matching car.
When I talked to the owner the person bought it was paypaling over a deposit as we spoke. ![]()

Good for him! If the motor is # match, he got a smoking deal!
