Re: Sparkplug Shields
In the 67-68 Definitive Fact Book by MacNeish, third edition, page 10 shows a picture of heat shields on a 68 Z28.They are original. Tony

Re: Sparkplug Shields
A Z-16 is a 1965 Chevelle with the 396 engine. I thought you were refering to "big blocks" many small blocks did have the heat shields, most were two piece items not the individual shields like on the big block.

Re: Sparkplug Shields
We are talking about big blocks here.
Who all here has orginal Camaros or Chevelles that can confirm this one way or the other. Most of the Camaros I have seen did not have them.

Re: Sparkplug Shields
My .02
I have never seen a survivor 1969-70 Chevelle SS B/B Car with heat shields. People who restore them that way,always regret that bad info they gt before hand.
