Vette(s): 1970 T-Top350/350hp numbers matching 4 speed. It's a mess and 1970 Convertible 4 speed.
Ok my 70 convertible just showed up and its not a number matching engine. The pad reads T0126 CRE on the back it reads 3970014 A 14 70. I am assuming its a 70 block? What car did this engine come out of?

Well, with that said, how about some pics for the gang. I know you haven't had time yet, and I've already seen it (and it's a honey).
