   It is an early car built in 66 and was a 327/ 2bbl, 3 speed on the tree originally, factory Bolero red, black interior.

Cool story ds1;   Your car is very similar to mine  11A(66) LOS built,  327/2 bbl., Powerglide on the tree originally, Bolero Red with standard Black interior.  Difference is it was my sons first car, plan is it will go back to him eventually.  When I'm done playing.  LOL!

 I'm looking for a reference to Camaro 396/TH400 but I did find this on a Chevelle site; http://chevellestuff.net/qd/alt_numbers.htm
Check the section titled "1967 - 283/327/396" optional 42 amp (std w/TH400 (stamped "CS") (RPO K79)    1100696    42

 In addition, I see quite a few 696 alternators on eBay and many are stating for Camaro, Chevelle or Vette BB's. There sure seems to be a correlation.

Back to investigating for Camaro...........

I have an 11B '66 (Norwood) convertible with casting dates of H6 intake, heads, and block.  I don't have documentation such as protect o plate, build sheet, or original invoice, but the engine is a 10/22/66 MM assembly stamping which is a L30 with powerglide. 

I also have a friend who's grandmother just left him her 1967 Impala (purchased new and built in February of '67), four door, no power, no air, L30 (327-275) with powerglide.  It has casting numbers of H-16-6 block, H-16-6 heads, and H-16-6 manifold, I know........ unbelievable!!  (for a March 1967 Impala)  The block assembly stamping is so rusted that it's non retrievable - believe me, we have TRIED.

Yes, 396 cars with TH400 appear to have received the 42A alternator. I'd be curious if someone can find that in the 67 Camaro literature.

Is the GM Reconditioning black paint a GM dealer only item?

I don't want to hijack this thread as it was about worm gear clamps on todays hoses.  I'm curious if Sanden is rebuilding the A6 compressors with the double lip seal, the original two piece seal, or if they desire to market new replacement compressors?

Just thought I’d update on my earlier post about the Edelbrock/AMC re-introduction cross-ram.
IT’S HERE!

That's very cool. Glad to see you AMC guys get some fresh speed goodies.

Correct, no factory installed spoilers in '67 on a regular production Camaro.

Yes, I plan on putting on the flip-top gas cap and it is being restored as it was when it raced.
