Default Stamp pad help

I just bought a 68 rs/ss. I was curious what the stamp on the engine decodes too.

Vo824TJU

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Joe

TJU suffix has two similar applications:

TJU 1973 350 van & bus - 155 4 C-10 to 3500
TJU 1974 350 van & bus - 160 4 C-10 to 3500

Casting number and date would tell you which one it is, but they are basically the same.

Thanks for the help. I was hoping for more, lol, the manifold on the car was a 68 Z28 hirise 3917610. I need to do more research on this car

Thanks for the help

I am at a loss on this car, trying to figure out what is going on.

It has the correct z28 manifold and heads but the block is wrong. It has 4 leaf, leaf springs. I am trying to determine the history

Have you checked out the other model clues on CRG's site? http://www.camaros.org/diffs68.shtml

Does it still have an original tire pressure sticker in the glovebox, and if so what does it read?

Is it a 4-speed, and does it have the Muncie speedo cable (exits the firewall to the passenger side of the wiper motor and runs across and down the trans tunnel opening)??

It may just have a bunch of different parts on it that a previous owner installed, and you won't be able to pin much down.

Yes a 4 speed and the speedo cable comes out just to the passeger side but still under the wiper motor

You can see the cable coming out of the firewall then stuck back behind the booster
