Kinda off topic but what is the significance of the "GG" versus no "GG"

John- "GG" is a reference to the last 2 characters in this carbs application part no. (whole part no. is 3967477 GG). This no. designates it for a 454/450HP/4spd & 402/375/4spd use.

Thanks Sam. So if all 4 speed 70 L78 LS6 received the GG stamped carbs, what is a 4557 list 3967477 <font color="orange"> without</font> the GG? Is it a over the counter replacement item or for a automatic transmission?
Thanks again

John,

Did not know that there were part #'s (3967477) w/o the GG. Don't know what the application would be for that. A Chevy BB solid lifter A/T application in 1970 was . <font color="blue">3969894GP </font>

The orange 70 L78 Camaro on ebay also has a non GG carb.

Right here Rick, hoping to pick up info on this mystery myself.

Question: How many plants built L78 and LS6 cars in `70? Wondering of the "GG" suffix code (et.al.) may be assembly plant related?

While we're on the topic (and to avoid starting an unneccesarily similar thread), has anyone seen a non-"GE" 4346, or a non-"DZ" 4053? (concentrating only on production dated carbs for the moment)

For what it's worth my 70 L-78 Camaro has the non "GG" carb. with a Dec 69 date. The motor was assembled in April of 1970.

I was told it was the original carb. but who knows.....
