I have a '67 L6 that originally had the underhood lamp option (wire clips are still attached to the hood bracing). The original lamp is gone, so I ordered a reproduction for a '67, but instead of the one mounting hole, as shown in the AIM, it has two mounting holes. The one mounting hole is in proper location just as the AIM describes. I have looked at all of the suppliers and all they sell are the lamps with the two mounting holes. What gives?



Thanks,

I'm afraid we L6s are a just about extinct.

On the L-6's, only the bolts that use clamps to span the ears on both manifolds are 30; the end bolts (which go through holes in the manifold ears) are 20 ft-lbs.

Actually, the outside hole in the exhaust manifold ear is a locating pin (see link).  The outer most mounting bolts span both manifolds and are spec'd to 20 ft-lbs.  All of the center mountings, a combination of studs and bolts, are spec'd to 30 ft-lbs.

There were no filters inline with the fuel line.  The only filter was brass mesh located in the inlet of the carburetor.
