 Great,the T0404MQ block is one I used to own,it's since been reunited with the car a few years back. thanks for posting the pictures and all the responces.it seem there were two different Q's used.deepending on time of assembly,to  answer a few questions above I was  checking this car out for a friend, and he's paying up for the project , it's a documented canadian sold car,no problem there just wanted confirm on the different Q and make sure it is the born with motor, so it looks like it's a go, we'll load her up and bring it home . thanks again.

Decoding/Numbers / 68 L78 deck stamp

« on: November 01, 2020, 02:15:59 AM »

Hi everyone

Im attaching some photos taken today while checking out a documented 68 l78 canadian sold camaro. I only have three examples of real MQ 68 stampings to go by, which are later 68 blocks, and I'm hoping there are more in the CRG data base.
My concern is the letter Q in the engine code stamp differs from the examples I have. The 840 heads with it are both cast the exact same day as the block (L77 Dec/07/67).

thanks Bucky

  My 02C Canadian sold and documented 68 Z does not have the rear proportioning valve on the subframe .I have read that not all 68 Z's had this valve,if I remember right it was changed throughout the year.
