Nope, yours is original. The one I described, which is what you have is out of my 67 327ci and should be the same as the L48. This is a 03C build date car.

Wow, thanks 1968RSZ28. 

I didn't find that forum string because I was spelling it as "dipstick" vice "dip stick" in my search.  It looks like all my questions were answered with the other forum string...and that I have the correct 68 SB dipstick...round handle, no dimple, grey tip.  Thanks everybody for the help and your time.

Bernie

Bernie,
Does your round dipstick with the grey tip, have one dot or two dots? The dots are located after the ADD and before the FILL.  Dave

Yes. It's a L48 survivor.

The picture you posted is that out of your 1967 Camaro? If so its the correct flat handle with the BROWN tip. The line from add to fill is shorter on those than the lines on the 68 pics that Chick posted. Hope that helps you out. Dave

It also should have lines, one after ADD and one before the FILL on the flat handle. The round handle from what I have seen all have a dot or two dots after the ADD or before the FILL.

Originality / Re: 1968 Diverter Valves

« on: November 05, 2015, 11:45:48 PM »

I just bought a NOS diverter valve with a "DH" ink stamp, stamped at the base 24765. I am a little confused, thinking 28649 was for a 68 Z28. I need a diverter bracket, hose, and elbow for same. Dean 1genclassic@sbcglobal.net

I was wonder the same thing. I have seen "DH" Ink Stamped Diverter Valves #7036449 with the base stamped 24765 and also 28469. Which is correct for a 68 Z28? Also is the 7036449 part number correct because the 68 Assembly Manual shows the part number as 7024765.

Lloyd,
I have never seen a 69 RS with shims on the headlight buckets. Were they really used?

What Bentley posted are correct and is one of the two bolts that I referenced. However, those were mostly used on automatics, hence why he has three bolts. Also the AMK bolts are wrong for the center portion are hexagon and not a circle like the originals.

Lloyd,
I have seen two different bolts that are the same styles, but the one has a "D" in the center and is the most common of the two from what I have seen. Dave
