General Discussion / Re: 1969 driveshafts

.... I am only trying to find out what is the correct driveshaft for a 396 4 speed 69 ....
The LEGENDS book on pg 59 says all BB cars came with inline driveshafts weather it is a 4 speed or Auto 400. The colors according to LEGENDS do not match the CRG driveshaft chart either. I feel that the CRG offers more detailed info than 1 sentance on pg 59 from the Legends book.
[Does anyone have proof in regards to offset vs inline??] Or is the section in the CRG under driveshafts all there is to offer?
If so what would you do, follow the CRG or listen to the LEGENDS book? I am stumped.

The Data CRG provides is based on submitted observations of documented original cars. If a book says one thing and 50 bb Camaro owners say something else, then, it stands to reason that the observed field data is representative of what is correct. That is why that Driveshaft report is so long based on submitted data. 📈data am one of those that submitted my information from my own 69 bb car. If the report says it is "clocked", you can take it to the bank because the info is based on factual observed original cars in the field. Rely on CRG info. That's why the word "research" is in title

Wonder how old license frame is? I have an identical one. Similar, yet different, available, still, today.

Don't take the judging manual as gospel. Do your own research. There are some disputed info.

I was aware that TH350 were in a handful of late 68s. Great job getting all these supporting docs, Kurt.

Glad he's outta here. Needs meds.

Make sure you don't use a synthetic lubricant. I think lube also needs to be a GL5

Curious as to why a guy would make a convertible into a coupe? I've seen coupes made into convertibles.

Holley offers a rebuild service. Not available from them?
If correct and originality are important, this is where you don't want to send a carb.

Originality / Soldered Radiator Tag

This was on a 68 bb radiator I have. Anyone ever seen a soldered on brass tag?
