Check out the engine stamping. Thoughts?

908th Camaro off of the LOS line? Low 691 Fisher body number. Block pad stamp  :-\
 Why all the "correct born with" and stuff in ad.. but the big old Ford sticker on shroud? Funky 3 at minimum IMOH but let the experts weigh in.

Shouldn't that be 275 instead of 375 hp?

Rare incorrect combination valve. Hood to cowl seal and starter brace delete options. Interesting stripe layout.

Nope. Rebuilt with a big roller cam, so with that it may be the new estimated horsepower.

So the space between the N and the 3 is ok?

Does the picture of the bottom of the motor show an exhaust pipe tie like single exhaust and other pics show dual exhaust? Nice paint for NC I should call him and see who did it, nice paint jobs are getting hard to find around here.

Vince-yea a typo…
I’m wondering if the space is normal or even the numbers?
Kelley-I saw that too. I’m thinking that was a before it was fixed picture.  Dunno.

Engine pad stampings appear legitimate to me.
