If your car has it's original front backing plates they will tell which style rotor was on the car.
If the car has # 5463496 &amp; 5463497 it had 2 piece rotors.
If the numbers stamped on the backing plates are 5463565 &amp; 5463566 then it had 1 piece rotors.
All this info is useless if the plates are not original to the car.
The other way to know which style the car came with can be found on the build sheet of the car if you have one.
From memory I believe codes AS and DK are 2 piece codes and DT is 1 piece. I am traveling right now and can't reference my build sheet collection right now.
I would lean towards 2 piece rotors if your cowl tag date is 12 B but it could go either way in my opinion if it's 02 B.
I have seen cars built into March of 70 with 2 piece rotors.
My February built LS6 convert from the Baltimore plant has 2 piece rotors.
Hope this helps.

Chris, I managed to find the 5463496 and what looks to be an L on the driver's side backing plate, but unable to get a decent pic though. So it looks like it had two piece rotors.
Thanks very much, you were a great help. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Postsedan</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Great info Chris....since we are on the topic of early and later built '70`s......Damien also take a look at your tail lenses. Are they the early style - flat lenses? The same with your hood....is your hood an early hood? Take some pictures of the underside front portion of your hood and post them...again this only applies if your hood and tail lenses are original.

Plus I see your Chevelle has the lower trim under the front headlight bezels....another part found on early built Chevelles.....perhaps we will see a pattern here [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Dan, I think you are correct.
Even though it has the round tail lenses rather than the flat, that may well have been swapped out at some stage, it looks to have an early style hood with the smaller triangulated inner structure?

Great! You need a set of 2 piece rotors and a set of flat rear lenses to make her complete [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Well done.
