1969 black on black ss 396

[jer]

It's accepted by some as just a human error but some will disagree. I've got an engine here with the same anomaly but it has a 9 vs a 0. To me, that's easier to buy because it's just one roll of the digitizer and that can happen by accident imo. Since it would happen so seldom, I don't think you're going to hear a lot of personal testimonies, just opinions on either side.

His blocks vin almost matches this cars vin the last number on his block is a 1 and the last number of this cars vin is 7
My question is could this be my original block do the vin numbers run that close maybe they didn’t punch right and the top portion of the seven did not get stamped right or maybe they used a 1 instead of the 7?

Replied to your question with my opinion in your other post.
