Decoding/Numbers / Re: Another 06B Los SS car without 4P on the trim tag

Thanks Bryon. I was expecting the top to be White. I like Mountain Green and was hoping to see that contrast. I forgot that the vin was in the first post.

Yes. It was an option in 1968, so it was available.

Interesting color combo. Never seen that, but I bet it looks great. Is there a car pic and vin?

That's good, so you know it is not original to your car. What are your plans for finishing your car; stock, day 2, mod or?

Sounds like it will be a great car when completed. Are you sure about the BV rear end code?

This statement is from the NASCAR "License to Drive" event criteria.
"Participants will drive their vehicles for two escorted laps at 55 mph, allowing all drivers to maintain enough speed to take on the 31-degree banking".

No relationship to vinyl roof installation. Wheel opening moldings were part of the Z21 option that was included with RS or available as an extra cost option on non RS cars.

Restoration / Re: bellhousing alignment-any new info?
« on: May 19, 2024, 06:13:02 AM »Ball bearings on the input shaft are more tolerant to bell housing misalignment. Muncies use that type.
Factory bell housing alignment are usually good enough for service with the Muncie and with a bronze bushing they are trouble free and easy to service. Newer reproduction bell housings or aftermarket bell housings are more frequently out of alignment enough to need offset pins to correct it.
The newer design Tremec transmissions use a tapered roller front bearing that is more intolerant of bell housing runout so it needs to be checked and corrected before buttoning it all together.
As for the pilot bearing vs bushing - the bushing works great and is easy to remove and install. The bearing is more difficult to remove, more intolerant of misalignment and does not bring anything to the table so....Why would anyone prefer a pilot bearing? JMO.
Friction.

Tim, I think the date is reasonable for your build date.

Hard to tell if the rivets are correct; they look a little thick. The rings around them make it look more suspicious.
