1968 - Orphans / Re: 18L326098 MO block for Z/28

After 4 long years I’ve finally made contact with a previous owner of my Car. I also have been able to hopefully track down another previous owners widow. I got a message back from one of them stating they owned the car, I’m hoping to give them a call when they have time and hopefully find out some details. The other contact hasn’t gotten back to me yet but hopefully they will make contact. I’m pretty sure the car is an SS but I’m excited to find out some history on the car.

Looks like a M20 and 3.31 gears may be a good combo for a Z28. If someone wanted a more friendly street combo It may have been worth ordering that way.

Yes, most likely a SS 350 and that’s ok with me but a slight possibility it was a Z28 that was special ordered. I will keep trying to get in contact with previous owners to find out. It does make for an interesting story though. Thank You for all the help.

Jon has been great, he has been helping a lot trying to find the engine so we can confirm if the car is an SS or Z28. I have some of the previous owners information from DMV but have no luck getting ahold of anyone on my list.

Hello,
  My name is M. Scott Morris and I have a 1968 Camaro that I purchased a few years ago as a project.
I was recently doing a VIN search on Google and saw your post regarding a Z28 302 engine block. My Camaro has that VIN code and is missing the original engine. I was under the impression my car was a SS not a Z28 although as you know authenticating that without the original engine block is virtually impossible. The car does have a Muncie and 12 bolt rear and has the proper hole in the firewall for the Muncie speedometer cable. I will send you a picture of the cowl tag and vin # for you to check out. I know this is an old post but I found it interesting to possibly find out if that’s the original engine for my car.. Feel free to contact me if you want or need any additional information.

Best Regards. Scott
