Then both open and close switches would need the foam. And it better be soft otherwise the motor will stall if it cannot compress the foam to depress the switch.

Tag would read 2 LGS if 4 Speed. Not 2 GS.

Any floor shift 67 should have the code on the tag. This is how Fisher body knew to cut in the hole.

I checked mine and no foam or glue residue. Low mile car indoor stored.

Ported vacuum is not really a performance killer because the moment you touch the throttle you will have signal to the advance can.
The disadvantage with ported is you need more throttle plate opening for idle which can cause run-on at shut down and a labored idle.
Best to go full Vac.

I would check the condition of the power valves before screwing with jets. 72-76 is standard and will run well if other factors check out.

This is as mine. The AIM is not how the factory did it. The hole would be in the corner brace if done according to the illustration.

You are correct. If the adapter is used and the ammeter loop is not broken the ammeter will function.

The Ammeter wont work if the external regulator is not utilized. It senses a voltage drop - or increase + from two different locations as a shunt and this difference is picked up at the meter. One of the locations is at the external Reg.

Probably because it's four wheel drum.

My 67 is 4 wheel drum and has the valve.

You can get a conversion part to use the spin-on type oil filters.

You probably realize this but the valve and spring are turned the wrong direction for installation in the pic. above.

ZL2 hood is GM. Probably over the counter replacement.
