THNDER,

I've been out of town for several days.

The casting dates on both heads is C 6 70 (March 6th 1970)

As far as the NOS Air cleaner, It is still in the unopened box and I really don't want to open it right now. I have had several generous offers for it and I'll probably sell it to help pay for part of the restoration. I'll ask whoever I sell it to if I can open it.

Getting that NOS air cleaner WITH your purchase is just mind boggling......Easily one of the rarest/most valuble individual parts on any 2nd Gen Camaro. Did you also get NOS Fan Shroud or at least GOOD one.....

They sold more Dual Snorkles over the counter,then came on the actual cars themselves.
Here's One in the Box.

Chuck,

I got a good Fan shoud with the car that I believe is the correct one,it is just dirty. The part number on it is 3973920. Is this the correct shroud?

Also, what is the part number for the L-78 radiator? I have to clean mine up and look for the part number.

Is the engine lift hook original? Don Lightfoot is looking for info on the correct finish on them. It looks like it has never been painted. Correct?

Nils look for the metal tag with a (LM) Code.
This Radiator was used in the 1970 L34 and L78 Camaro’s. Be VERY, VERY Careful with that Fan Shroud.
It is another Extremely Rare and Tough piece to find. I had a guy put his elbow through one of mine. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

Good Question on the Lift Brackets which were also used on the LS6. Hopefully some of the
LS6 Chevelle guys will chime in with some answers for us. Niles Lift Brackets look to be Not Painted.

That's the correct fan shroud for ALL BB engined Camaros used in the Camaro from 1970-72.
Not L-78 specific.
