ZL1 items
 

Went and looked at a 70 L78 Chevelle this afternoon and this is part of the stash the owner had in the back of his storage area

Re: ZL1 items
 

The spacer was used on ZL1 and other high horse (L88) applications in order to clear the temperature sending unit with the curved neck.

Re: ZL1 items
 

It was also used on 1965 396 425 hp corvettes .

Re: ZL1 items
 

Not on any factory-built ZL-1 Camaro. They used the standard t-stat housing with no spacer just like an L72 or L78.

Re: ZL1 items
 

The spacer was used on 396 65 vettes as Chuck said and then on 67-69 L-88 vettes.

Re: ZL1 items
 

So ZL-1's had a 660 housing?

Re: ZL1 items
 

All '69 bb Camaros located the temp sending unit in the LH cylinder head and used the '660 housing. There are vintage engine bay photos of the #3 & #5 ZL1 Camaros that show this.

Corvettes may be different.

William,

Any chance you could post those period photos of the two
ZL-1's you mentioned?

I could scan them and send to someone for posting. Everytime I have tried it here the pix are too big.
