I believe there were a limited number of aluminum head L78 Chevelles made in 70....that intake was also used on 71 LS-6 Corvette..Colvin's book shows the engine codes. Sent you a PM..

No 1971 LS-6 Chevelles produced for public consumption.
Those 1st 90 days only production 18 1970 L-89 Chevelles used the 842 Aluminum heads,not 074.

1970 L-78 Camaro-Nova-Chevelle & LS-6 Chevelle used that #4492 when equipped w/TH400 trans.,that were NOT sold brand new in the state of Calif.,Nevada,and certain areas of Montana.
What is the date code showing on your #4492 carbs air horn?

1970 L-78 Chevelles used that Hi-Rise intake also.
What is the date on the #569 intake?..Does the intake have the cylinder No. on each runner?

DeWayne,

The intake date in on the underside lowered cross-over
section. It will be something like: 3.21.69

Also, the Holley numbers will be on the front of the airhorn
( drivers side ). This is a vertical face that is in the
aircleaner region.

Rick,

Let me see if I remember this:

No 1970 LS-6 Corvettes - right?
No 1971 LS-6 Chevelles?

If I'm not mistaken, I've seen technical listing for LS-6
application for both cars for both years. More folk-lore?

Steve

I wouldn't exactly call it folklore,but technical materials were printed before the cars were assembled and made a reality.
I believe Chevrolet had ideas to assemble these two cars for public release,but they never fruitioned once their respective production lines started.
