68 Part Numbers
« on: August 06, 2012, 11:05:43 PM »
Hey guys I'm hoping somebody can verify some part numbers for the following:

68 J-code
build date mid June
San Jose
C4 Auto

Engine block - C8OE-6015-A    Date Code 7J6 I believe not sure about this
Intake manifold - C8ZE-9425-A
Crank Shaft - 2M or 2MA not sure which one

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

David,
69 Sports Roof 302 2V (numbers matching)
Dearborn (June build date) Acapulco Blue
68 Coupe J-Code
San Jose (June build date) Sea Foam Green
2001 V6 Laser Red

Does the 7J6 translate to sept 67 date code.  I read in a old post about a strike that took place late in 67 would that be an viable explanation?

There should be a vin stamp on the engine, it will be 8R followed by the sequence number from the VIN.

i have a 7L8 j code block which was from an early december 67 car. Your engine is earlier, so definately originally from a 67 built car.
