vfitom2aol.com,

That code indicates you have one of the early "ZZ"series engines. THe ZZZ code was first, followed by the ZZ2, ZZ3, and the latest ZZ4 series. If it's complete, it should have the early Z28 hi-rise intake, a hydraulic roller single pattern cam , 235/235, with 0.480 "lift. I believe the crank is a 1053 forged unit with the forged "pink"rods, coupled to hypereutectic pistons stuffed in a 4 bolt main block. Rated at 345 HP. Nice find.
