My L78 69 has one. Never looked at the mount but I will now. It was there in pictures from 77 and looks like the other one.

Not sure about the L79 but most stock GM covers will fit upside down and the rockers will rub. Set the on a flat surface and you can see the angle. Ask me how I know?

Couple hundred miles just enough to dilute or wash off the old lube from the gears. You know what to do but the symptoms sound like low lube level.

I said “never” but played around in the “test” post and did it. Might help to get a kid to help, that is what I do with my phone.

Yes, Kendall was it. We used to run it and the only complaint was the color after a while. Course most oil now is so clear you can,t see it on the stick.

For those looking GM metal, there is an advertisement on Roanoke VA craigslist. He says he has several GM flat hoods at $100.00 each. 67-69.

I remember back in the day using a green oil. I don,t remember it being called Brad Penn. We discussed then that it got darker quicker. The appearance of oil signaled a change since most people did not change by mileage.

Back in the day laying on the ground with a flashlight I threw them away. I reinstall them now. The one with the slot is easier to work with.

You could run original type on the right and interlock on the left since the left was the problem. Have I broken an original left? yes , did it lift and pull the throttle , yes , did it scare me? yes, would I still run an original type on a top level restoration or survivor , yes.
