 this is the other end of the same left side slider cable. It is on top of the under dash box, you should be able to see this if you remove the glovebox.

Bryan, here's a pic of the switch, it's mounted behind the control panel and is worked by the left slider.

OK, thanks, I understand now. I mistakenly assumed all HP big block chevys got the "bolt to the main studs" windage tray.   jess

OK, so no 396 windage tray? How about 427 in the COPO Camaros. Did they have them? If they did, what oil pan did they use? How would one identify it, and is it being reproduced? TIA,  jt

Restoration / BB oil pan that fits Camaro AND bolt on windage tray and studs?

So, can anyone help me understand which bb oil pan I need (original or aftermarket) to be able to use the factory bolt on windage tray (and mounting studs) in a Camaro chassis? Did the 375hp 396s not all come so equipped?  TIA, jess T

They are pretty much "unseeable" once installed. I would think it would be relatively easy to fab up something functional after the grille was removed.

What would really be nice is for someone to stamp out some of the BB lower shields!!!   ?!!!  (hoping!!!)

RS and open headlight were different


This has me wondering. I have searched the AIM and the only reference I have been able to find concerning this is on page 206 (?,page number appears hand written), it shows two different baffles (3955983-4 for coupe, (12337-437) and 3949867-8 for convertible (12367-467)) and from the pics it appears the curved baffles are to clear the convertible "cocktail shakers". I can't find any mention of RS and nonRS baffles. Is there another reference that I am missing? Does anyone have pics that show the differences? I intend to change my non RS ac car to RS and wonder if I need to be looking for different baffles?  TIA, jess t

Actually researched them a bunch, can't find what I need to know. I cannot determine which ring goes in the top groove and which fits the second. No instructions on packages (they are blister packed, 8 sets, one per cylinder).  Just hoping someone may have some instruction sheets for them.  thanks   jess

69 AIM DOES have a good drawing that shows two distinctly different panels AND specifies C60 A/C or not, but makes no mention of a different one for ralley sport, or RS with A/C  ??

     "RS and open headlight were different"        that's interesting, the metal part or just the rubber parts? Do you know of any comparison pics?  jess

Mild Modifications / Electric power window kit

Anyone have experience installing a power window conversion kit in a 69 Camaro? Thinking of adding power windows to my car and wondering which conversion kit to go with. Thanks in advance.  jess

Mild Modifications / Best quality, most complete, RS conversion kit for 69

« on: June 23, 2019, 04:22:35 PM »

So which vendor has the best quality, most complete, RS conversion kit for a 69 Camaro? Looking for factory style vacuum operated system, best quality, fit and finish. It's for our personal car, not a car for sale, so it has to fit and function as originally designed. Heartbeat City, Ricks and Camaro Central all offer a kit (Camaro Central is local, about 65 miles). Wondering which one to go with. Jess
