1969 Manual transmission Big Block with AC Radiator
« on: August 13, 2021, 02:33:17 AM »
Explaining to several buddies about what 69s came with a curved neck radiator. I told them that I know of no 396 ac with manual trans. Are there any known examples in the database or that anyone has seen and verified? Just curious? I know it could be ordered, but have never seen one.

The solid lifter engines are generally the ONLY engines for which AC is not an option...

A/C was optional with L34 and L35 396 engines; seen a number of them over the years.
Learning more and more about less and less...

If anyone was going to give a definitive answer, I thought at least one would be from you, Bill. Thanks. Several? Hmmm, would have thought that rare to have both. Thanks, again.
