General Discussion / Is this for a 67-69 or Chevelle?

« on: Today at 03:38:47 AM »

Picked this gem up in Carlisle with the switch and the guy had another switch to boot. Big score. The web never lies but I’ll believe it here regardless. Camaro, Chevelle, something else?

Try the other accessories-fan motor for the defroster, back up lights, turn signals to see if they act the same.

I don’t think any transmission would not have the VIN stamp on it due to warranty and QC tracking, same as the engine. I never say never, but …..

Jeff does a fantastic job stamping in my opinion, because he’s in full control of the end product. If you’re a real stickler, you should source your own hose and have him stamp it. You can also go to your local auto parts store and see if it fits.
OER is just using the big 3 auto parts stores to source the hose.

Genuine intakes did not have a bow tie cast into it, among also missing the front oil filler tube.

For the drums to work effectively and as designed it is absolutely necessary that you:
Upgrade to front disc.

In my world,  as long as the trim tag, VIN plate, and firewall with the hidden VINs are intact as a unit, it doesn't matter. What is your end goal?

Can you post a few pictures? If I'm a betting man, I'd lean towards the Firebird owning the trim, not the Camaro.

The limited space from the big HEI cap the the firewall can vary due to the engine mounts. The modern systems eleimate that possible issue, but if you had one to test fit I'd say go for it.

The "Coffee can" is for ac only. The tank at the left front is for the headlights.
Both are independently plumbed for their specific operation
There SS has no association with either.

If there's issues, try rebooting.
