Default 1st generation camaro(68)

I'm looking for a 302-327-350 block(3914678), heads(3917291), intake(3917610), distributor(1111467) and not to be to picky, I would like the casting dates to be April 68 2nd or 3rd week. I would consider late March dates. Oh yes a 30/30 solid lifter cam and lifters.

OK, I know the parts are hard to find but lets start with the block. 3914678 used for 302's 327's and 350's, large journal 2 bolt. I have the crank, rods and pistons so just a bare block will do.

Finding a DZ302 block is like looking for a Sasqwatch these days. It's getting harder and harder. I paid $1600 for my rebuilt to original specs DZ block back in '02 and they were very limited then. It's going to take a lot of looking to find one and probably big bucks to purchase it. Be cautious of sites like ebay. Lot of scammers on there. Keep your eyes peeled for the barn finds or the estate auctions of old original camaros laying around. Good luck to ya!

Thanks again guys, I uncovered the fact that my Z/28 was built the 1st week of April, so the block(3914678), heads(3917291) and intake(3917610), should be dated late March 68.
