Default Re: 1970 L78 Nova SS owner needs feedback.

I won't argue to the death on the heads, but I thought that some early novas had the 163 intake with the open element air cleaner. Does your blk nova built a day after this car have a dual snorkle air cleaner? Does it also have the arm/rod throttle? My dual snorkle late build had the cable. I thought other than the cable being a saftey in respect to a broken motor mt holding the arm open, that there would be a clearance issue with the arm/rod and the dual snorkle and the intake height.
It was my thought that the cable, and the D/S air cleaner came at mid year with the other changes. Some of those spurred by the introduction of the new camaro model.
So can you tell me when the drop dead change date is for the cable, and the D/S air cleaner. As it's possible that this D/S air cleaner is not correct for this early built car.
