Default Re: 1970 Chevelle throttle bracket

The car was well known in the area in the 70's and my father knew the guy that he bought it from in 1974. This guy is still around so He was contacted for some info. He bought the car in 1973 out of Colorado. He said the 454 burned 7qts of oil coming home so he had it rebuilt. He then had a friend that was wanting to stick the engine in a camaro for racing. He said he had a kid on the way and needed the money so he traded the motor for a 396 and 500.00 shortly after the swap he sold it to my dad. Car is Arlington built in March. I have not found any build sheet to prove that it was a LS6 but believe it to be. It has 454 emblems in 1974, Malibu door panels, boxed control arms, 6500 red line, 12 bolt.

Won't the rear gear tell if it was an LS-6? Did LS-6's have malibu door panels?
