Default BB Nova z bar 1970

Does anyone know if there is a part number stamped in the z bar? If there is, anyone know what the number is? Does anyone have one they could measure for length for me? Many thanks...Tony

I know my BB Camaro Z bar is roughly 9.5" long. I believe the small blocks were around 9" long since the BB was offset to the passenger side for exhaust manifold clearance.

The part number was not stamped on the bar. It is no longer available from GM. They sold the rights and it is repoped. If you change from a small block to big block Zbar. You will need to change the other parts going to the fork. Chevy 2 only and others sell a change over kit. Earl
