Re: My 70 LS-6 project
Yes you caught me [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/blush.gif[/img],The 907 was for a customers 68 that i got scorched on.
I do however have the original base and lid for this car. As i was taking pics i was placing things on the table from two different shelves (also note the incorrect engine lift brackets)  (have 3 -70's)

Re: My 70 LS-6 project
Great thread with detailed pictures. Thanks for sharing.
One question.....I'm looking at the oil dipstick. The loop/handle is round not flat. It seems that everyone wants the flat one. Is there a difference is years or manufacturers? Can you tell us what, if any, part number is stamped on it?  Here are a some pictures of a coupld of dipsticks that I have. Neither of them have a part number on them.       Kurt

Re: My 70 LS-6 project
Kurt, Good call it has the SE rating, now its only good for whipping the dude that sold it to me. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/youguysrock.gif[/img]
Also I do appreciate all the helpful replys and positive comments so that when it comes time to go back together it will be correct.

Re: My 70 LS-6 project
Kurt,
Both flat handle and round handle sticks were used in 70. The trick is in the specification wording, 69-70 sticks should read USE GM 6041-M-QUALITY MS OIL. I don't think the SE rating came out till later. But original 70's have popped up with round handles and the 6041 spec. Chris

Re: My 70 LS-6 project
James, The top pic I'm pretty positive should actually be the air cleaner breather hose used on 70 open element or dual snorkel air cleaners. The bottom pic is of a repro bypass water pump hose. Originals were smooth with no markings.
