Default Re: Help Identification on L78 lid?

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Mr70</div><div class="ubbcode-body">It's definitely a 1970 + open element top only,and not the larger diameter Dual top.

1970 L-78 Elcaminos could not get the dual snorkle.Dual snorkles came out much later on in the 70 model year,long after the L-78 option was cancelled for Chevelle/Elco which were only produced for the first 90 or so days of production,before the LS-6 came out.

Hey Rick good to know info on the L78 only having an open element or Cowl Induction breathers.

What is your take on these two build sheets. Check out the code on the air breather. One is from an LS6 the other is from an L78.....





Thanks for your thoughts.
