William:  Interesting exceptions: ZL1's had their own set of ordering problems. 7 litre V8 Camaro would be harder to build/source than a 5 litre V8 Camaro. Good point, Fisher # does not mean much.  Any info on that block of Camaro VIN #'s with no shipping info? I have 2 Yellow Camaro's, 12C and 1C, '69's which it would help? The 7 Litre, solid lifter,  engines were always in short supply at the Ford plant in Mahwah. Many went over the fence, disassembled.

I would consider 1,252 far-off, for same everything, X33,  Camaro, except color. They were assembled within 2 hours of each other.
My car is Yellow, the other is Orange on Ebay.
The focus is Norwood. In addition, block date seems dubious to me?
I have a 3rd VIN, 600 units, after mine as well. I needed the block, I bought in 2017, from Swartzy Emporium on the recommendation of Bill Shirley.
Thanks for the info on the lines, I know Mahwah Ford plant well, full size & F-Series.

I have a 12C X33:  565665 VIN with a Fisher unit 172920

Ebay 12C X33: engine pad reads V1I22DZ, and the partial VIN 19N565815 with a Fisher unit 171668

Does Norwood mix-up data tags and unibody's on the same day of assembly?

I think the DZ stamp is 3 weeks, too early?
