Camaro Questions

[hotz]

Hello Camaro Friends,
I am looking into buying a 69 z28 with the crossram already installed. I have a couple of questions before I make the deal.
 1. I thought the Vin would be next to the engine stamp but, that is not the case with the 302 (according to the CRG web page) but will the engine stamp still be where it normally is or where do I find it?
 2. This gentleman states the block casting number is 3970010 which was a popular block which would fit a 69z28.
 3. The gentleman that owns the car states that the crossram is an original that was placed on by the dealer in 1969-1970. Is there any way to the untrained eye to tell if this is or is not an original or after market and if it is what is it worth? ( of course no documentation)
4. He also states that the carbs are 585 cfm but, have the number 4295 which according to the CRG web would be 600cfm right? So is he wrong and mistaken or could it be both?
 Thanks for all of your help and look forward to hearing from you. Brady

Post the vin number here, and any photos you may have. Somebody on the site may be familiar with the car.
