Re: 70 l89 NOVA?
 Here is a pad stamp from a 1970 LS5 Chevelle. No one sees a problem here?

Re: 70 l89 NOVA?
Your C does look more open than others I've seen.
Dale has some nice photographed examples too. http://chevellestuff.net/1970/engines/index.htm

Re: 70 l89 NOVA?
Troy says the C should have a straight back and not the curve like this one..as i look around, i see both styles some are called right out re=stamps some are accepted as real????hows a guy to know..
.too bad theres no known/confirmed willow run stamp pics avail to do a side by side..even 325 horse stuff just to compare..the C doesnt bother me too much..its the W..and a friends statement this morning kinda shook me a little...he's seen more BBC stamps than anyone here could ever..he liked it except he said "boy the stamp sure looks fresh" i see the small block "C" and CE share the same font thats on this block..throws a few questions up.... i am not smart enough to tell..but i did find a willow run 396 and it has the same C as the one i am looking at..close to this on production number too..just a few thousand cars away..

Re: 70 l89 NOVA?
The broach lines just don't look parallel on the CKP stamp. Look at the broach lines at the top left of the "P" and top right of the "P" and the lower left of the "O" and lower center of the "O", they are way off of parallel.

Re: 70 l89 NOVA?
It took awhile to find this photo...note the 'C' in CKO. This is from our 22k mile 70 survivor...you can decide.

Re: 70 l89 NOVA?
He said it came out of a Nova, so ask him if the car was restored then totaled, or if it was original, just trashed? If it had been restored, then a restamp is possible. If was a beater, then a restamp is highly unlikely. Did he actually see the car, or was he just told it came out of a Nova?????
