Found this while kicking around on ebay.

7L156356 2 bolt main
T0413MX 396/325 3 or 4 speed AIR

Just an FYI my 67 L158 tag rivets look just like the 2 L158's up above. When the DMV
came to inspect the car he took a lot of time inspecting the rivets and hidden vins. It took
about 6 weeks before they sent the title.

Oh missed one 1967 02C 396/325 auto right tank OM date code L  left tank IL

 My 1967 03C 396/325 auto right tank OM date A UO tag left tank IL
      1967  05C 396/375 4sp  right tank OL date C UN tag left tank IL

Ok after going back and looking at other pics this must be a 67 12 bolt. It has mono leaf perches (67) with
4 leaf springs (69). The casting code must be H 16 6 instead of an 8.

Ok my bad on page 314 of CBTN it shows PC as a 2:56 posi no reference to 10 or 12 bolt. But what is in the
car is a 12 bolt with a casting date of H 16 8 and stamp of PC 0929 G.

I checked on a project 69 camaro and the rear is a 12 bolt PC 0929 G. CRG has it as a 10 bolt 2:56 posi.
In Chevrolet by the Numbers it list it as a 12 bolt 2:56 posi. Anyone else come across this?

First you need to check the casting day and the blocks casting number to see if its a 67 or 68. If its 67 dated, would it have a  exchange stamp on it or be blank as this one?
