Vintage Lakewood Scattershield - Wanted

[68 DANA]

As a result of everyone's effort, I was finally successful in locating an early vintage Lakewood scattershield (part #1503)but was not fortunate in locating the corresponding #1570 block plate. Does anyone have any leads?

Does anyone have any pictures of a Lakewood Scattershield #1570 block plate used on big block applications?

This is a plate that goes to the pictured 1500 SBC/BBC scattershield. Not sure what the part number of the plate is.

The block plate for this early version of a Lakewood scatter shield only covered the upper back part of the scatter shield where the block was. The bottom front was wide open. Later on they made one that covered the whole opening and had louvers or air holes in it, but it still didn't bolt on the bottom like the newer versions do.

Dave , I'm pretty sure for the 69 NHRA Season , the Shield pictured here was Outlawed and LAKEWOOD had the 1 piece bell with sight hole and Louvered Block saver.
A few years after that, around 73-74 ish.,,,the sight hole was outlawed as well....these both had a larger wrap around flange &amp; the holed ones had Square welded on nuts for the block saver. Newer ones had Hex nuts welded on and the even newer ones had just holes with a smaller flange.

I sent a few pics to Sam of 1500 series plate. ..louvered with small crank hole &amp; welded on square nuts. .... circa 1968-69-70-71-72

Tom,

According to the Lakewood literature a big block Lakewood scattershield, model #1503 would have a corresponding #1570 block plate. The block plate that I have (as seen in the photo) is a #1570 however there are additional mounting holes on the bottom flange. Not sure if this is for a newer version of Lakewood scattershield even though the block plate number is correct.

WOW ! LOVE THE CATALOG....
IM Looking for one just like that up to 1972.
That 1570 plate looks just as I described earlier ....69 issue I believe.
BB had the large starter nose hole knockout. SB Had it too but on the inside for a 10 1/2&quot; clutch.
Those were used for a few years then went to the 3 hole design, then added a much larger crank hole with less outer holes for attachment and less material on the outer diameter like the one Sam has pictured above yours.
The one you have is Perfect for a '68 on up Car assuming it was added new from Lakewood. (the extra lower holes I believe are there for use with other GM shields.)
Those are extremely rare today.
I have this style on my '69 SB 302 w/ Doug Nash M22 2:52 Muncie.

Its not for a newer one....its for the bell you have listed. (oops, I meant ,69 &amp; up. The Block Plates for the '68 on back used an identical plate as pictured. With the Bottom Circle not there. It went straight across the
engine block rail exposing the flywheel just as if a &quot;stock tin dust cover&quot; was removed. Extremely Rare, as Most were THROWN AWAY for
Safety/installation issues.

A solution is to find a block plate 1570 and cut off the bottom.....ugggh.
Another fact of the '68 on back removable clutch access Scatter Shield from LAKEWOOD is They were Painted BLACK as pictured above.
The 1 piece were the first ones painted RED..... all the block savers were UN-PAINTED....Until the 80's.....

Some plates have a single starter hole, some have a knockout crescent moon for SB use as the plates interchange.
A BB shield can be used on a 10 1/2&quot; clutch but a SB shield of that era CAN'T be used on an 11&quot; clutch.

Note the L88 uses the SB set up ,,,, they used a 10 1/2 &quot; dual disc and a special light weight flywheel....cool pieces of unobtainium today.
