Are you sure about that the car had cast iron on it i know the L78 has the aluminum 660

I do not have definitive knowledge, but a cast iron thermostat housing certainly does not seem correct for ANY 69 big block to me. I know that my low mile 325hp 69 SS396 convert has an aluminum one on it. Engine build date of 12/30/68.

The thermostat housing would've been installed at the engine assm. plant if that might be food for thought. 660s are mostly what I've seen. No iron...Joe

Aluminum 100% for 69 Big Block
Also keep in mind there are two types of 660 Housings, you want the one pictured with the number on the flange as mid-late 69 they started putting that number on the neck. Painted Chevrolet Orange for Low Horse Applications and natural like photo for Solid lifter motors with aluminum intake. |
