[QUOTE=L_e_e;1464386]Is it an original 375hp car?[/s
Per classified ad-
As stated, this car does not retain its original drivetrain, though I believe the rear is original to this car. I also do not know what the original engine was and I have no "documentation" and I do not want to speculate or even give hint that it may have been born with the rare 396/375hp (L-78) engine. I can only tell you what I know is under the hood and what has been under the hood for over 30 years. This is a solid lifter 4-bolt main 375hp block from a 68/69 Nova along with a dated 68 Nova L-78 Aluminum “snowflake” intake manifold. Square port “858” heads dated for January/February 66, and an original 66 SS L-78 Idler pulley set up and clutch fan.

It’s actually a 1970 Nova 375hp CKO block.
