Now it makes sense why the tire pressure sticker is shown loose.

I also noticed upon closer inspection of the pics that the partial build sheet shows GS1 2.73 gears. Were 2.73s available on a legit Z15 optioned SS car in '72?

Pretty long legs for anything trying to be a legitimate performace car.

Yes...My 72 Chevelle SS L-48 came stock with an open 2:73 KD rearend.
As I stated earlier,He picked the right Chevelle to build the Super Sport foundation on.
By 1972,Chevrolet accommadated ANY Low horse,Hi-Po profile motif.

My buddy's '67 SS 396 Camaro (L35/M40) came from the factory with a 2:73 Posi. He's the second owner and bought it in 1979. He still has it.

That's a funny statement since I would rather be driving my DZ302 '69 Z/28 over my '70 LS-6 Chevelle...ANY DAY OF THE WEEK! Not that the LS-6 is bad mind you https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/headbang.gifbut just a little lap time behind the wheel of a true DZ motor will convince anybody of what's real Chevrolet High Performance.

Long live the 302 & LT-1 and every other GREAT Chevy small-block ever made! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif

Did I mention I have a '70 LS-6 4-speed Chevelle?

Yes it is fun but nothing (and I mean nothing)beats twisting a DZ302 to 8-grand...NOTHING! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

Re: Time capsule 410 miles..wow
 
The only difference is you are actually getting somewhere in the LS 6 https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif
