Hi guys. Anybody have a decent clear pic of the spark plug wire shields installed on a 69 Z28? I need a pic of both exhaust manifolds for comparison purposes. My set has 2 with brackets spot welded and 2 with the brackets screwed on. Was this the norm or was there a specific position for each shield. There are no other markings except L R on each one and the 69 AIM is unclear, at least to me.

The shields and supports are screwed together on the driver's side, and spot-welded together on the passenger side. See the Assembly Manual, UPC 6, sheet B9, View "C" and "D".

Thanks John. Right there under my nose. I found a pic of member lcmc's Z on ebay and it shows the shields partially so I think I got the idea which was on what side anway.

Unbelievable. I DID a search and didn't find that post. Great pics. Thanks, uhhh...'your name here' for the help. I just picked up the shields since mine were MIA and didn't want to just install them willy nilly. Mine are just like what shows in the pic of Jon Mello's. I was about to remove the orange paint, but I'm glad I stuck it out and posted my question. Man this is great detail stuff.
