General Discussion / 67 Camaro SS 350 valve cover hold down tabs

« on: March 05, 2018, 11:46:33 PM »

I'm putting on the correct factory chrome valve covers and I want to find out was there a correct color for the hold down tabs and bolts? We're they plain, orange, black.  I can't find any information,  even restored engine pics I can't see good pics of the tabs under the bolts.

I've looked on this site and only found one response,. Did the 67 Camaro disc brake cars have the round medallion on the pedal as factory or not? Was that a 68 Camaro first?

Ok thank you, I was thinking it was a one not an i. Guy threw in leaf springs and traction bars and complete brakes.  It came with a project 55 Chevy and he was installing a Ford 9 inch.

General Discussion / 12 bolt Camaro rear, casting date question

« on: July 23, 2017, 07:59:44 PM »

So I bought this 12 bolt rear cheap, and got home to check all numbers. Multi leaf spring mounts. Axle tube is code BL for a 68 3.07 open rear.  Ring and pinion are dated 67 correct 3.07 ratio.  But the carrier casting number looks like January of 67.  Is it normal to be cast that far in advance before being built? Or am I reading the cast date wrong? Would it be letter I- 28- 7, meaning September 28 1967?

I'll have look, it's a factory 3.55 12 bolt posi, from having the cover off, but I haven't looked at the numbers on the tube. It has the round rod traction bar.

My car is 4 wheel drum brake, was manual brakes originally but has a 1969 power brake booster installed.  My car is factory AC car and does not have the brake valve on the frame with no signs it ever had it. I don't have the protecto plate, so I am curious if there's any obvious signs if the metallic brakes were optioned on my car?  All my brake drums are smooth. I've read all the information about the brakes on this site, I just didn't know any obvious signs.
