Decoding/Numbers / Re: Power Steering Pump Pulley

« on: March 14, 2011, 09:38:32 PM »

I removed the 3770509CE pulley to put the correct 3941105DD deep groove on it.
Just wondering what the 3770509CE fits.

I removed the power steering pump pulley from my 69 Z28. It is part number 3770509CE. Could some one tell me what the application(s) is/are for this pulley?

My preference, I believe, is to clear coat the natural finish hangers to retard rust and use stainless steel bolts and nuts.
Thanks for the responses.

I had spoken with Gardner. They offer the hangers unplated (natural metal) in their base kit. For an additional sum of money they will
plate the hangers. They called it galvanizing but perhaps they mean silver plating.
Does any one know how the judges at a major meet would evaluate plated hanger brackets when the originals were unplated?

What is the correct finish for the exhaust hangers on a 69 Z28? I am referring to the metal hanger brackets. I am assuming they were either unpainted or silver cadmium? Perhaps galvanized? Thank You.

Decoding/Numbers / 5468309 Master Cylinder

« on: February 25, 2011, 06:00:00 PM »

I just removed the master cylinder and booster from my 69 Z28 and installed the correct ones.
The master cylinder I removed is part # 5468309, broadcast code EA, and date code 10. What is the application for this?
The booster is stamped on the top ear 3239 (front) and CL on the rear. No other markings. What is the application for this?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Was wondering why Ben's car is in C and yours in D?
Also what horsepower factor has NHRA assigned to the 67 Z28 to have it running all the way up in D stock?

For the correct front speaker go to www.turnswitch.com. Phone 763 780 2861. I recently bought my front speaker from them. It is a 8 to 10 ohm speaker. It is correcct. Do not use a 4 ohm speaker.
As to the bracket I placed an add on Team Camaro and turned one up. They are also on ebay fairly regularly.

How difficult is it to come up with a 532 CCW advance cam for the 1111480 distributor? What other GM distributors was this long slot advance cam used in?  Thanks.

The  orbital flywheel surfacer used to be called a blanchard grinder. May have other name(s) now.
I would not overlook engine mounts.

I was looking at some of the Eastwood coatings as it seems they used to have a "cast blast" paint. Can't find it now. They have a "detail gray" which is for cast iron parts. Is this what you would use now? If not in a rattle can what paint brand and mix number are you using? Thanks.

Paragon makes fittings for the nylon (plastic) oil pressure lines such as is on the 69 Z28?

Just to follow up. I borrowed a tapered hand reamer and was able to clean up (ie smooth) the inside seating surface well enough that the fitting is not leaking,
Sure seems that someone would be making these GM style block fittings though! Thanks for the suggestions. This site is very helpful.

Well, respectfully I don't think so. I looked that item up before my initial post and I do believe that is the standard compression fitting with a farrow and is not compatible with the GM proprietary end and nut on the oil line kit provided by either HBC or NPD or Rics etc. I have one just like it from NPD. I am guessing I can simply cut the GM stuff off the end of my newly purchased oil line kit and use the standard compression fitting with farrow. The GM does appear to be a better connection though.
