I think your fan shroud is the later service replacement.
The originals had a cast-in part number that ended with "165"

Rick you are correct,
It is an over the counter NOS GM unit 3rd design shroud.
Any Idea what the "W" logo means under the Cowl retainer means or the "L&T" logo on the intake splash pan?

I see that "W" on some fan's and other misc. stuff, think it is just a vendor stamp ?

I'm with Mike on that, as well as the L&amp;T on the splash pan, but not really sure.
There are quite a few parts on these cars that have various odd letter stamps and some of them have been figured out to be just that, Vendor stamps.

Thanks guys,
I know they are vendor stamps but was interested to know what company &quot;W&quot; + &quot;L&amp;T&quot; are.
Maybe &quot;W&quot; is Winters?
I am sure someone knows who these vendors are, kind of interested to know what all the logos mean since i am documenting every part with a photo and description in a file i will keep with the car. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
Most of the questions i will ask on this thread are ones that i could not get from GOOGLE searches, I tried but could not find any past discussions on these logos.

I dought Winters made stuff like sheet metal parts, As you may know Winters was a foundry here in Canton Ohio.

Monday night i hired my engine builder and i decided to go with Roller rockers and lifters for better durabilty from the engine. I will also be using Flat top pistons to achieve a compression ratio of 10-1 or 10-5 as i want to run 94 premium gas from a gas station without always putting in an additive.
I will also install the Pretronix kit under the stock distributor cap.
The stock dimple rods will be used again and i all ready Sold the Used pistons a few weeks back.
I plan to drive my car a lot so this set up makes more sence for my tastes.
Car will still make a lot of ponies and look bone stock under the hood[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
For the Exhaust i will be using the stock 69' Chambered exhaust system that came on the car as i just love the sound these make.
