I thought I had a dated Schweitzer clutch on a 04C COPO Camaro I restored some years ago, I have no pictures of it. Is that possible on the L72 ?

Eaton Fan clutch on a Z, but it had a longer shaft and was stamped CV. L78 and COPO was CZ and had a shorter shaft.

Z couldn't get a Delco stamped CZ?

I've never seen a 1969 delco stamped CZ. Just Delco's stamped CH.

Mike,
The original owner Berger Copo I saw a few years ago also had a Scweitzer clutch. It was a very original car with 45k miles.

Thanks Mark, might be the L72, from talking to Grady all his 69 Vettes got them.

Eaton was on the hi-po stuff - maybe it had higher rpm capability than the Delco.

I think there may have been 3 lengths, but maybe it was only 2.
I've always wanted to include the measurements with the fan info, if anyone has any of the measurements.

I have 2 Scwietzer short shaft clutches - one dated March '69 and the other dated May '69.

Didn't the high performance Corvettes in 1969 use the Scwietzer fan clutch?

Hello Bergey,

I am interested in purchasing your March 69 fan clutch if you are interested in selling it.
We talked twice last year once when you brought your COPO to the Reading area AACA meet then at the Supercar work shop &quot; Solid lifter showroom at Carslie.
If you do not want to sell the fan clutch -could you send me photos and measurements so I know what to look for.
Thank you
