General Discussion / Pictures

Can anyone lead me to some good pictures of the complete 302 z/28 motor, so I can see if I'm missing anything on mine which I just finished rebuilding, all parts are number and date matched.

Thank you all, but I did make a mistake on the larger mount it's 3980701 not 3880701, sorry. The mounts seem to be ok so I'm going to use them. I did buy the recall 'hold down' kit a while back. So if I want to be correct then I should buy 1 3886466 to match the one I have or buy a pair of new ones to be safe.?

Thanks guys, Butb believe me I have a 3880701 mount and it's bigger in size than the 3886466. I don't know if it's an original part? Something about the engine torque required the beefier mount? I'm in the process of assembly of my 302 and I wanted to install the mounts on the block ahead of time, so that's what my concern is.

Thanks Pete

I have a 68 z/28 Camaro and my motor mounts are 3886466 and 3880701, my question is which one is the left(driver) and which is the right(passenger)?

thanks guys, the bolts I have must be the long ones, 3-5/16 on the long end and the same on the short end. The 5/16 is exactly the length that prevents me from using them. Do either of you have a problem with cutting them down? In the mean time I'll search the internet for the correct ones.

OK thanks. The windage tray I have came from a 4 bolt 350 sbc and I'm using it on a two bolt 302 z/28. However the special bolts are two long (4bolt vs 2bolt main caps), Can these be cut down or are the correct bolts available?

I'm talking about the shield that's attached to the main caps with special bolts.

Looks like a lot of non z/28 parts on this motor.

Hello, did the 1968 z/28 302 have a oil splash shield?
