Correct. Looking at the window sticker closer, I see that it shows "CR" for credit after the price, that makes more sense!

That's right, '67 to '69 GTO had the 2BBL option.

Since you have all owner history and mileage documentation, the odds of the engine being replaced are slim to none....and slim is ready to leave town.

Fingers crossed. We shall see next week! Can't wait for the unveiling. I already ordered a new set of AC plugs for it since the ones in the photos look rather old. Initiate Mission creep in 3...2...1

As long as you're doing that replace those Autolite plug wires too - coming from someone who really understands scope creep on car projects

Nice original car, I see a intake gasket in your future (looks like it is sticking out)

I have a 70 cutlass convertible, but it's a Chevy underneath

Can you post a photo with a circle around the gasket issue? This is my first time working on an Oldsmobile engine.

If you look over the #3 in the casting number and then the #8 in the casting number you can see it sticking out ( looks like oil residue there too)
