The engine bay jambs in the Action West photo (post #116) look like they are Dusk Blue or Green, definitely not orange. It sounds like you've done a lot of research but are you sure it's the same car?

This is a couple of pics of the T.I. harness hole in the firewall. Years ago I talked with Rex Parmain who said he pulled the ignition out when they were prepping the car and replaced it with a aftermarket ignition. He said he had it on a shelf and I tried to buy it but he said he was going to install it in a Corvette he owned. Looking at the other photo at the Autorama at the old Salt Palace I cannot tell if its a Mallory YL distributor. It does have yellow ignition wires.

Do you know what ever happened to the ZL-1 motor that was in it? Or have you ever tried to track it down?

There was a post on ZL-1 #9 drag car called "ZuLu-One' I was asking questions on it and
George Ebling replied

" it was originally a Dick Harrell car that he sold to Tom Rose, from Warren OH. Tom raced it for a while, then sold it back to Dick.
Tom was a Buick racer.
Tom never drove his cars, always had drivers, good drivers
the ‘69 was named “Great Scat”. The ramp trucks were probably white GMC’s. He also had both a black and red ‘67 GS’s, a ‘68 white GS convertible named “Salvation Jane”, a white “
‘70 GS named “Little Joe” a 71 GS I can’t remember if it had a name, and a Buick powered Opel GT Flop top that ran 9.0’s.
if memory serves correctly he only ran ZuLu-One one or two years. Always claimed he didn’t like the constant maintenance

I thought this was very interesting because in one of the photos of "ZuLu-One" there are 2 ramp trucks. On the other ramp truck is a red Buick that looks like a 1969 GS.

The pic on the left is one of the pics you posted of the alleged K66 piercing.

Next to it is a photo of the same area on a 1969 Camaro. The circled hole is for one of the firewall pad retainers, in the same place on all 1969 Camaros.

Maybe it's me, but I see enough differences to question your photo. Can we get a pic of the entire left side of the firewall?
