Default 1997 SS Air Filter housing question

I just recently picked up a 1997 SS #390 and have a question about the air filter assembly. Everything that I have read said that the air filter housing said Z28SS on 1996 SS models and was dropped in 1997.
My 1997 SS says Z28SS on the filter housing. I know for a fact it has never been changed.
Was there a certain number of early 1997 cars that received the Z28SS housing? My car was made 9/96.

I've posted a picture. I just started to clean up the car so please excuse the dirt.

Thanks
Rick H.

Rick,

They in fact did use the Z28 SS air filter housing in some early production 1997 SS's. I own one that looks just like yours. I actually drove mine off the lot and remember having this discussion back then.

Unfortunately I never heard numbers regarding this. Hope that helps.

Dustin
