Hi crew,
Here's my attempt at deciphering the temp. senders for 1st gen Camaro with pics.
The list includes L6 and V8, with and without gauges. I hope the pics are at least representative.
Permission to use these pics on this forum has been sought and granted by all the owners - credit is given with the respective pics.

Here's a list of part numbers from April '70 PnA grp 1.150

V8 with gauges

67 - 1513321
68 - 6400759
69 - 1513462

V8 without gauges

67 and 69 - 1993369  see note 1
68            - 1993426

L6

67 1st design - 1993369     see note 2
67 2nd design - 1993409    see note 2
68 and 69      - 1993427    brown or red top

Note 1. The group has an entry '66 - 69 Chevy, Chevelle, Camaro [8 cyl.] [exc. gauges]' but also has a specific entry for 68 which reads 'All [8 cyl.] [exc. inst. panel gauges] which has a different part number.
This variation in 68 versus 67 and 69 is also noted in the AIM's

Note 2. According to the PnA, the 1st design was stamped 369. It had a temp rating of 248 degrees.
The 2nd design was ink stamped 409 and a date code. It had a temp rating of 253 degrees.



Here are the pics of the senders/switches, in the same order as the above list.

Cheers Kurt!   :)
One thing I've noticed is that whilst the PnA I have only mentions a partial part number [last 3 digits] on sensors 1993369 and 1993409, an ink stamp is also present on 1993426
1993409 and 1993426 also have a 2nd group of characters which look like a date code? year-month-day?
The 'date code' on another pic I have of the same 426 pictured here looks like 8c11.

Yup, looks like a date code.

One thing to note is these are service parts - production parts may be cosmetically different.
