I recently found my RPO code sheet that used to be in my center console...and i researched all the codes from the RPO decoder, but found 2 that dont add up. N03 and YT9 are not on this board's database..anyone know or have a clue as to what this is?? Also, I have the LB9 engine..305 Tuned Port...but on my side ground effects, it says "5.0 Liter FI"....that stands for fuel injection, right? But i have seen TA's with "5.0 Liter H.O." written instead...which is correct? Something screwey about my car? Any help would be appreciated...thankx.

5.0 Liter FI is correct for your car. The only 3rd gen that ever was an H.O. was the L69, those have "5.0 Liter H.O. (High Output)" badging and were carb'ed.

Ok, now realizing what a dumbs**t i really am, i mis-spelled the code. I read it wrong off my RPO sheet...yes folks, i am sorry for wasting your time....however, not all time is wasted...the code that STILL does not come up on the RPO decoder on this board, is NOD or N0D...cannot decode this RPO code...its NOT NO3 or N03....sorry about that...i have an assload of codes, and i guess mixed/matched them...my fault...any help please?

If its NOD that could mean the car was built in Norwood, Ohio. VAN means Van Nuys, California.

I might be wrong. I cant remember if Norwood, Ohio is NOR or NOD.

Thanks Kevin...but why would something like that appear on the RPO option code sheet that was in my center console? I thought something like that would only show up on a VIN number.

how fast does your 86 ws6 ta go in the q- mile

 

I havent raced it since i put the high-flow cat and flowmaster on it, but with a completely clogged, hole-riddled and rusted exhaust system(before i changed it) it ran consistent 15.9 1/4ths. I am sure it can do better now.

Who knows? My RPO sheet shows VAN in it. And I think there is something in the VIN showing whether it was a Norwood or Van Nuys car, too.

 

Well, you must be right then...I cant come up with another possible explanation that actually makes sense. Thanks for your help.
