Good picture Gary. My UH tag is right over the date spot in my pics, so I can't see the date yet..

Wouldn't a radiator date code (J) be a little late for a 06A Built car?

Good question. But probably not too late for a bb 4spd w/air, and then by this date, COPO. Has a manual trans bb ever been documented with ac would probably be a better question?

Just my thoughts, but I will defer to those with experience.

So that would be "J" of 68?
So the metal tag is how you distinguish between 68 and 69 radiators?

Darrell, I am familiar with the CRG page, what I don't see addressed is how do you tell a late 68 radiator for a early 69 like Jimmy V, vs the same "F,G,H" date for a late 69 built Camaro. I didn't see a metal tag in his pic to help with identifying.

So my question is since there isn't a early production or late production distinction according to the chart, could you in fact use Jimmy V's dated radiator for a early 69 Z, and a late 69Z and it would be correct still?

This not the original radiator for the car. This radiator is original I purchased for car 15 years ago to replace the incorrect s/b radiator that was in the car when purchased it.

Currently I cant say with a 100% certainty but until the data reveals something different my gut says yes at this point.. 

This not the original radiator for the car. This radiator is original I purchased for car 15 years ago to replace the incorrect s/b radiator that was in the car when purchased it.

Thanks for clearing this up be unfortunately Ill have to have a question mark by your info as its not the original one for your car.

My 12B 69 SS350 has a CB radiator with a K.

Interested to see as the data point number grows, what is the greatest gap between rad date and car's estimated build date.
