Re: Survivor LS6
Hard to tell from a pic but the 1 looks like its pretty high on the pad to have been stamped with a holder with the head on especially with the protruding head plug right above it . Pictures do have a way of making things seem not as they are though.

Re: Survivor LS6
I think the deck is stamped with the assy date before the heads are installed so that looks good. As far as the VIN stamp, I had an L-78 block from an 69 Nova that was stamped once, X'd out, and restamped again.

[/ QUOTE ] The engine plant stamp (assembly plant, assembly date and engine code) was done with heads off on big blocks so there would be no head/plug stamping interference. I have seen stamping partially obstructed by the head. The VIN was obviously done with the head on. Small blocks were plant stamped with head installed.
