TCS Solenoid (434) Original or Repop

[CamarosRus]

How about my 14 year old thread !!!!!!!

I'll have to post NEW pictures, but dont have them yet

Anybody know if the repro 434 and 432 TCS switch
has a ROUND top 3 (like this) vs the FLAT Top
3 on OEM Originals.

Who is opening these up so as to replate the ZINC
How much $$$$

Who will share knowledge about replating, reriveting,
TCS relay on blak plastic firewall wire gutter ???

Chuck,
I do not know of any new tooling repop 434 TCS solenoids
As far as I know, only GM solenoids have the flat top 3 in the part number. I also believe the original electrical contacts used an amber colored sealer. Some of the NOS ones I've had didn't seem to have anything and some have a gray colored sealer.
Riveting the real to the wiring gutter is no big deal with the correct tubular rivets and correct set tool.
I would be happy to help you with that. It's also no big deal to restore the solenoids as long as the field coil is good.

Is there another part number stamped on the other side of the bracket? I recall taking one apart and finding 451 stamped on the other side

Marlin,
I've never seen any other part numbers on the opposite side of the bracket of a 434 solenoid.
1972 small block tcs solenoids carry part # 1114451. Could that be what you had?
