Default Any 03D L78 Camaros out there??

As my L78 Indy does not have original motor, I am trying to narrow down what the block date stamp would have been on my original motor. My car is 03D cowl date. My VIN is 617795. Any L78 Camaros with a VIN near this?? Or any blocks out there with a nearby VIN number?? Thanks SYC

HAVE A TO310JH NO VIN but i do know it was the original motor out of a camaro. It wasnt an over the counter piece Is that from my old L78 Pace car? Also have a few JJ l89 blocks with march date stamps. I may be wrong but either TO314 or 324 was found 4-5 times, then again thats a different animal

The L78 wasn't a common engine as compared to the regular 307, 327 and 350s.

That meant that they produced a batch of L78s and then they got stored until a car on the line needed one. So in some cases the production date of the engine could be a month or even more before the date of the car.

Post it in Team Camaros Tag section or on CRG.
