"Mystery" Chevelle LS-6 in NEW Muscle Car Review???

[Mr70]

The Dual was a later production air cleaner.Open element was very noisy under WOT.So they muffled it.
One of those Dual Snorkels was for sale at the Witchita swapmeet last February.The seller,selling oil cans, wanted $100.00,but ended up taking $50.00.A very good day indeed!

Your'e killing me here...........chuck

[Mr Yenko]

I have (2) of those air cleaners and i noticed that the CO code on the side of the base is not there? At $50.00 i will take another (2)

[CamarosRus]

Anybody reading this......having any knowledge of misc smog components for sale to fit 69/70 L-78 or LS-6 and misc D.G. pulleys and misc alt, P.S. and smog brackets
please notify me.......what is the CO code Mr Yenko speaks of......with all these air cleaners hanging around you guys can start your own reunion.......Chuck

[Mr70]

The CO code is the suffix listed on the buildsheet for the Dual Snorkel Air cleaner.Also found on the side of the Dual housing is a decal that states"Keep your GM car all GM".All GM air cleaners have this decal.The Dual has the CO suffix on it also.
While at Peotone Il. swap last June,there was a Dual Snorkel for sale.It had the Snorkels completely cut off,but had the chrome lid and CO decal still intact for $25.00.Those orignal decals are hard to find in good shape...

[Mr Yenko]

The other codes are (DG) for Coul Induction
and (ss) for open element.That car is also NOT A STRIPE DELETE but a non-coul car with out the induction. When you ordered a coul inducted car it automaticly came with stripes . But you could DELETE them from a coul inducted car . And that is a TRUE stripe delete car. And i have only seen ONE in all my years around Chevelles.

[Mr70]

1970 Stripe delete specific Chevelles can be found.I have seen 16 so far and their build sheets show it as well.A few did not like to advertise their cars racing appeal.

What about the hood pins on the 70 in MCR?

[Mr70]

When you ordered a working Cowl inducted hood in 1970 only.You got stripes and Hood pins automatically from the Assembly line.
You were able to Delete these stripes in this situation.But you kept the hood pins on from the factory.

This MCR car was ordered with the Standard SS bulge Hood in 1970.So it could not receive stripes or hood pins from the Assembly line.But the stripes and Hood pins were available for the Dealership to apply over the parts counter,if the customer requested that and paid extra.

This buildsheet will not show that,so we have to assume either the Dealership added the Hood pins during delivery,or one of the owners between then and now added them.

In 1971-72,Hood pins now came on working and non working cowl Inducted Hoods as standard.

I'm not fully Chevelle knowledgeable, but I thought the stripes were available as an RPO (D96?) on a non-cowl SS hood in 70.
