Yes it was used in 1970. This is Mark Mitchell's LS6.

I agree Jim. I was looking at the overspray on Rick's LS-6 restorations, last week at the MCACN show, and picked Ricks brain a bit on how to do it, so it will hold up longer.

I like the clean look, with no overspray, but I like the overspray look too. Enough to pull the motor out and change it? I can see that happening sometime this winter.

[/ QUOTE ]I have an L-bracket that receives the oil pressure line with a compression fitting. I don't believe the gauge cars use that wire clip.
