PM's expired for you to receive, at least that is what I was given and could not continue.
Guess we will have to wait until tomorrow so I can email my Images for you.

Ok, give it a shot now.

Re: 12-Bolt Axle numbers stamping inquiry
 

It must be a late 69 axle when they started using the 70 format. C = Car.

Re: 12-Bolt Axle numbers stamping inquiry
 

I believe the 'C' was stamped separately from the other letters, sort off to the left and crooked?

Re: 12-Bolt Axle numbers stamping inquiry
 

The "C" actually is not that close to the 2-digit suffix. It appears more correctly as this:

C.....XX...1030..G1
----------->E<---------------------

Re: 12-Bolt Axle numbers stamping inquiry
 

As Kurt stated,it's a late 1969 production rearend.
The assembly date of 10/30 is most likely 69.Check the Housing cast date as well to confirm.They made the 69 Camaro's much later then usual.
Chevrolet instituted the letter "C" in 1970,with their drive train components to help identify their applications better.
"C" stands for Passenger Car.
"T" stands for Truck.

Mr70: Did the Duece Nova or any 1969 COPO Nova ever receive a BE rear axle? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Re: 12-Bolt Axle numbers stamping inquiry
 

I'd say no on both counts,but others here may have more experience with them.
I see the BE 4:10 posi was specifically a 1969 Camaro application.
BV was the 1969 Nova 4:10 posi application.

Re: 12-Bolt Axle numbers stamping inquiry
 

If I'm not mistaken, "BV" was also the *normal* 4.10 in the Camaro, as the Nova/Camaro units are identical...the "BE" was the COPO 4.10 unit...

Re: 12-Bolt Axle numbers stamping inquiry
 

Ok, so if Don Yenko , for example, ordered lets say 20 Novas under the COPO order with 427s in late 1968 for it to be a 1969 , what axle would it get? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif
