Could anybody verify if all BB Camaros had the double baffle pans or only certain models?

Need help from some of you experts out there. Has this crank got a 3.760 or 3.766 stroke ? There's a lot of conflicting info out there as to what is what.

General Discussion / 68 Camaro 12 bolt pinion seal installation

« on: December 01, 2014, 01:38:23 PM »

Was reading my service manual regarding installation of the the pinion seal. The seal I'm using is an original GM 3924031. It mentions the use of a guage to go between the seal lip and housing. Does anyone know the thickness of the guage as I don't have access to one ?

As mine is a 396 with TH400 the part number given to me for the mount was 3872247. Not 100% sure as there is that many part numbers for these mounts with different applications. Done web search for your number and still nothing available.

Bought a repo TH400 mount the other day from one of the Camaro restoration companies and it's a real piece of junk made in Korea. Does any know where I can buy a half decent one ? I would prefer a genuine GM one, but realise they are near impossible to find.

Thanks hotrod68. Yeah I have a cooler already in the radiator. Just want some added cooling as I live in Australia and it can really hot here in the summer. Got a B&M supercooler (part # 70274) to go on. Just wanted to get some ideas on how other members have mounted them.

Have any of you guys fitted a trans oil cooler to your 68 69 Camaros ?  It's not a numbers matching car so I'm not too bothered but I want to do a nice job of it. Any ideas on how to mount it or photos would be nice.

Trying to find one of these modulators with no luck. The original one I have is no longer working and I don't want to put on one of the newer small type. Does anybody know where I can get one or maybe another solution ?

That's the one, thanks Mike. Doesn't really matter as you don't see it but I want to restore it properly.

Were the covers painted or left as bare cast iron. If painted what colour were they ? Can't find info anywhere. Cheers.

General Discussion / 68 Camaro 12 bolt brake backing plate gasket

« on: January 28, 2014, 03:14:43 PM »

When I disassembled my rear end I didn't notice any gasket between the brake backing plate and housing. I've noticed some resto vendors sell replacements. Are they supposed to be there or not ?

I've posted a few pics to show the difference between the two. I'm assuming from the replies that RH side is correct for 68 ?
