Default Re: #CE L88 427BBC long block value

"the engine casing in a car presented for judging must carry the correct casting for the year and application of the car. The casting date must be before the assembly date of the car. As I've said, they don't care if CE is on the pad or not. If NCRS wanted to provide some point break for a CE block with some dealer paperwork to verify its existence, that's fine. But right now, they don't. This is the judging system for all components of a Corvette"

I STILL find it hard to believe that a natural order of preselection occurred back then!

And once again, you are basing this solely on NCRS judging, ONLY!
In the real time of what occured back in the day, this process should not match your judging approach!
Looks to me as if you need your NCRS boys to rethink this out.

I still think this goes back to what Chuck suggested:
That , for example, in 1969, a 512 Block was made throughout the Chevroelt run, then it is feasable to locate such a Block with this casting # and date code of casting around a particular car's build.
Pick any 512 Block casted prior to your build date, whether the MN code existed or an IT existed, then you are saying it's correct.
