Car Craft September '68 drag tested an L78 4 speed Chevy II. The engine photo clearly shows the AIR pump set high on the passenger side. The car ran 12.85 @110mph after adding headers, 4:56 gears, slicks, fuel pump, and tuning. Not too shabby. I believe that the cars that came without AIR pumps got exhaust manifolds not machined for AIR fittings.

COPO Pete:

Right article, wrong magazine.

PHR (July '69) covered the same test as the May '69 Super Stock. The PHR story also includes an engine photo of what is believed to be the #5 ZL1. The photo shows headers, trans cooling lines and diverter valve. They left the AIR pump on the car after the header installation.
