March 19th comes from your 07801S code on the machined pad. </div></div>
Sorry to ask but i am still learning something new about these cars everyday.
How did you get March 19 from 07801S
Is 078 a julian date for 78th day of 1970, also what does 01S mean? 1970 first shift?

Thank You very Much Mr70.

Carb was sent to Jeff Dotterer by the previous owner.
It is Rebuilt with high quality and ready to be reunited to the low rise intake (it also came with a certificate from Jeff).
Here are photos of the Cowl Induction Air cleaner system.
Does anyone know what that &quot;W&quot; stamp means that is under the cowl spacer retainer?
The cowl induction Rubber seal is a NOS GM piece.
Also what does the &quot;L&amp;T&quot; mean under the intake on the splash pan.

Still would like to know what that &quot;W&quot; stamp means that is under the cowl spacer retainer?
Also what does the &quot;L&amp;T&quot; mean under the intake on the splash pan?

Moving on to the next item is the Fan/Clutch/Shroud and Pulley.

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

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

I see that &quot;W&quot; 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.
