I have a 1970 1/2 Z-28 that originally had an LT-1 in it but now has a factory CE block. Is the CE still considered or built to LT-1 specs?

Thanks for the help guys!

Only if it is a "CE" LT-1 engine replacement, imho..

Outside of that, I really don't know?? Sorry.....

I do know that back then you could buy crate LT-1 engines tho... L-88's too...

Thanks for the help. I have to tear into it anyway. I guess I will find out soon enough.

Block will probably be a 010/020 hi tin content nickel block, very desirable.

I appreciate the help. I guess this is directed specifically to Don-what numbers would let me know it is a nickel block?

Thanks again.

He just told you!

look for them to be on the drivers side of the front of the engine behind the timing cover and probably on the back under the bellhousing if i remember right.

PS., Numbers like "010" and "020" sort of deal, usually one on top of the other stacked cast in place...

This is a 1970 LT1 Z28 block (CTC Stamped) I have that shows the 010 and 020 casting numbers. Hope this helps.
