Chevy 305 RPO L120????

Anybody ever hear of this.
Carolina Machine is offering a 305 L120 in Lieu of the LE9. And a version with more torque L120T.

L120 is not a valid RPO code. It looks like it is just a number that they use to designate that motor in their system.

That's pretty much what I figured.Most RPO codes are 3 digit right? I'm trying to get specs from them. I'm wondering if their high torque engine is really the le9 and the L120 is actually the low output.

RPO codes have always been three characters. The older trucks had an SPI label which stood for Service Parts Identification and that had four character SPI numbers...
