oddly enough I recently bought that piece on eBay, it is item #2...but i'm still looking for the bracket it attaches to.  likely i'll have to rig my own piece to the underside of the trunk to attach to.

That is the problem, i don't think there is a part number.  If you look at the pic of the AIM I put in the post you can see there is no part# listed.  I also couldn't find it in the parts catalog.  I have all parts except that initial hanger at the top.
Looks like KevinW said this is welded to the trunk underside...which mine has been replaced & I now don't have this hanger piece.

yes 1969

Anyone know where I can find this hanger?  I need the piece that seems to attach to the frame rail or the underside of truck...it is not listed in the AIM or the parts manual...I can find all other pieces.  I'm trying to attach a pic of AIM upc 8-A4 (hope it works).

Does anyone have any advice on how to remove the heat riser flap/valve (unsure the official term) in the exhaust manifold.  Mine is seized & I can't find anything on how to remove it.  I don't see any retaining rings or anything so i'm not sure what's holding it in or how to get it out (simply press it out?).  Any advice is appreciated.

Where did you get the 230 sticker on the air lid?  I didn't think they made those for 230s...would like to get one myself.

Having some luck with AMK, thanks!

Looking for some advice.  Restoring my parents '69 L6 (nothing fancy but priceless to me...original engine, tranny, rear axle, even have the POP), generally I have good luck finding what I need & replacing some components back to what would have originally been on the car (numbers wise, like the correct booster or carb) & the CRG site has been in-valuable.  I'm running into trouble finding correct hardware for engine components, alternator, starter, power steering, etc.  Lots of places sell chassis hardware and many sell some V8 stuff, but zip when it comes to L6.  The AIM shows the part# but doesn't say what it is (1/2-3" for example).  Is there a way to translate the part# from the AIM to a part description I could then buy specifically?  Or any other thoughts would be helpful, I hate slapping on grade 5 zinc coated hardware from the local farm store.
