Looks like the general consensus is the ZD 3 core. Has anyone ever found a buildsheet up in the headliner? My car was a Norwood built 04C model.

Paul,
No build sheet on mine either but the pacer is a Norwood 04C also.

Paul,when I located the car it had a "cobbled up" 427, but still retained its original 837 alternator, 499 distributor, deep groove pulleys, harrison radiator, M-21
and rear. My M-21 is also P9D11B and the rear is BU0415G2.
I located a date correct JH motor and that has been installed.

Wow, both transmissions built on the same day! Cool

What are your dates on the Alternator and Distributor?

Paul

Re: 1969 L78 Camaro Radiator
 

The 837 is 9 D 3 and the 499 is 9 B 12. The distributor looks just like the 499 in Jerry MacNeish's 1969 Z28-SS396
fact book where the "B" strike is lighter than the other characters. Maybe it was a little worn.

My L78 Pace car was built 03B engine stamp is TO311JH trans is P9B14B rear is Bv0314G. It seems the drivetrain has never been removed from the car.

Re: 1969 L78 Camaro Radiator
 

My L78 Burgundy convertible showed ZD on the chassis broadcast copy that came off the fuel tank (Van Nuys built), however the car had a curved neck radiator. Drivetrain is M20, 3:55 ratio.

Re: 1969 L78 Camaro Radiator
 

LS6 RAT - Is it the original Harrison Radiator? If so, GM must of had a shortage of ZD radiators and substituted the curved neck 4-core.

Paul

Re: 1969 L78 Camaro Radiator
 

My 69 L89 Camaro has a 3 core ZE coded Harrison Radiator with a straight neck. It has been my understanding that all Copos and L34/L35 Cars (with AC) recieved curved neck. Also that all ZD and ZE code radiators are straight necks while all UY and UZ code radiators are curved necks.

Hope this helps......have a great weekend~
