Joel,
Do yourself a favor and buy the template kit. About 10 years ago I had factory GM quarters put on a 69 that I have. I broke the studs off the old gills, set them in place, and used them to drill the holes. Well they looked like they lined up. I ended up drilling another set of holes. Ouch!

Thanks for the replys everyone. Ok, confession time - I already made a cardboard template and drilled holes in the wrong spot on one side.

But when I tried to fit the grill on, it seems it is supposed to overlap into the louvers. Oops. So I need to buy that template so that I don't have more than one set of holes to fix. Looks like I'll have to round up a Camaro parts catalog somewhere.
Thanks Pete. I'm getting alot of mileage out of that picture in Super Chevy! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif[/img] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
