Re: Stewart Warner Reducer
It is a speedometer (corrector,reducer) to correct the speed for tire size, gear ratio change.

Re: Stewart Warner Reducer
Back in the day I used to see these mostly on 4x4 trucks. They could be used on anything.

Re: Stewart Warner Reducer
They could be used on anything. The number 1.272 may be the ratio unless there are other numbers stamped on it.

Re: Stewart Warner Reducer
That round style came on the Yenko Deuce Novas with something like a .81234 ratio since they didn't offer the 4.10 gear in '70 Novas. Do you see that type of stamping anywhere on it? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]

Re: Stewart Warner Reducer
Marlin, correct me if I am wrong but the one I attached looks more like the one I have seen on some 70 Nova's and Camaros. This type was on 1100 mile 70 Z28. Oddly enough Mark Mitchell's Classic Copper Z28 assembled very near the same time had the rectangular type of BW reducer. The one posted above by the original poster looks somewhat different to me but maybe I am wrong.

Re: Stewart Warner Reducer
You might be right Rick, we've seen at least 3 different styles on the Deuces - so I'm not surprised that you've seen variation on the Z's as well.

Re: Stewart Warner Reducer
Interesting. I knew of the two styles but did not know of the third. Thanks for the info.
