Default Engine sticker question

OK, I got the answer last night, as to where the rad tag goes, now I'm looking for info on the radiator top panel sticker(s).. What sticker(s) would be correct for a 69 375 Chevelle? I have a Jim OsBourne catalog around here somewhere, but not sure what would be the correct stickes(s), or what section they should be placed in.

Cooling goes in the outer top left section.(closest to the battery & grille..Osborn #DC0144)
Tune up/emission goes in the outer top right section.(closest to the horn relay & grille...Osborn #DC0446)
If it was equipped w/NA-9 Calif.emissions,that label would go in the center & closest to the bumper.If not,it stays void.
Car looks nice!

Thanks for that info gentleman. I will go with Jim Osborn, because my past experience tells me, most of their labels are correct, and they stock everything I've ever needed.

The rad is all bolted down, hoses are in, and I ready to fill the block with water. I didn't bolt down the therm housing yet, b/c I want to fill it thru that location, rather than just filling the radiator.

Question: I ordered the 2 thermostat housing bolts from Ground-Up, and they sent me black bolts. What would be the correct plating for the thermostat housing bolts for an L-78 aluminum intake. Shouldn't they match the nickle plated intake bolts? or.....

EDIT: Also, is one of the 2 bolts, suppose to be a stud??

Bill
T housing bolts should be clear zink or cad, no stud used on your application. I think on some SBC there is a stud for the Alt bracket and ground.
