This is the Engine Code. For 1984 through 1988 models, the 8th digit MUST be a 'G'. This signifies the car came with the L69, 305ci, 5.0L High Output V8 engine. The 6 digit sequence number assigned to the vehicle (VIN positions 12 through 17) does not indicate model style specific data. You can not compare this number with style specific production numbers to determine where your SS lies within the production of SS's that year. The sequential number in the VIN contains SSs, CLs, LSs and plain model Monte Carlos (dependent on year) and possibly even other Chevrolet G-Body vehicles The Chevrolet Monte Carlo was an American-made two-door coupe introduced for model year 1970, and manufactured over six generations through model year 2007. It was marketed as a personal-luxury coupe through most of its history, with the last model version being classified as a full-sized coupe. When it was discontinued in 2007, it had outlived many competitors that were either discontinued many years earlier or changed in concept to either a four-door sedan or small sport coupe. The Monte Carlo endured six design generations. The first four (1970–72, 1973–77, 1978–80 and 1981–88) were of a rear-wheel-drive, V8-powered (V6 available beginning in 1978) coupe style, utilizing separate body-on-frame construction. The later rear-wheel-drive generations bucked the trend of unit-body construction, along with smaller engines, that became more prevalent in the early 1980s as automakers downsized their vehicle lines to meet increasing stringent fuel-economy regulations in the aftermath of two energy crises that led to gasoline shortages and skyrocketing pump prices in 1973-74 and 1979-80. Despite those trends, the Monte Carlo remained a popular seller and even regained the SS version (initially offered for 1970-71 with 454 cubic-inch V8) from mid-1983 to 1988 with a high-performance 305-cubic-inch V8 Monte Carlo SS production model is a very popular street car that has the makings of one of the few true collector cars from the 1980s. The Monte Carlo SS has a special appeal for many people, in large part because when the last 1988 models were built in December of 1987, they became the last rear-wheel-drive examples of the name, and the last full-frame, carbureted cars of any kind from GM.
