Our COPO Chevelle with the white lettered F70 Uniroyals has no mention of ZP1 only ZP8, ZV6 and ZN1. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

OK... I'll answer my own question. 9566 was the COPO # assigned to the cars that came with 14 inch tires and 9562 ws the # that was assigned to the cars with 15 inch tires. That is why the Yenkos are refered to as COPO 9562 cars. I should check my own research before asking questions!

The new 14 inches wheels (Magnum SS) start on chevelle COPO with the new 9566 code. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
This code was probably created for these wheels.

Most of the Canadian imported Copo Chevelles are 9566 Copos with 14" wheels. There were Canadian Copo Chevelles that are listed with Copo 9737LE, Copo 9562DE and 9694CB Power Drum Brakes! There are at least 3 equipped with these options that shipped into Canada. Triple Copos!

Pete I donít know it that is true because there were about 10 different numbers used in the documents for 427 COPO Chevelles. This probably has something to do with the way Baltimore Assembly plant handled their assembly documentation. Compared to Norwood who used one number (9561) for L72 Camaro production. It is not clear how many numbers were actually used for the 427 COPO Chevelle program. I believe that Yenko ordered the first L72 Chevelles with 9562 then there were changes made using different COPO numbers as more dealers wanted to order them with their own selection of options.
Mark, I still like to see those documents [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggthumpup.gif[/img]

Just for clarification, Copo 9694CB is the copo for a single piston type - manual design front disc brake unit. The CB suffix refers an order combined with a 3-speed automatic transmission together with Copo 9737 and RPO J50 Vacuum Power Brakes. Disc Brakes were a manditory option on these cars.

If the 9694CB is the 3 speed auto with disc brake why is the J52 option not on the vehicle import sheet option list, only J50? The Canadian documentation call out 9694CB as 3 speed auto equipped with power drum. I would expect that if CB combined the J50 Power brake, 9737 option and disc brake option, the J52 would also be reflected in the option list as the J50 is. The 9737LE option is listed seperately on these cars. Another mystery.
