Thanks! I should have thought to look at the superceded numbers book too! Very helpful.

That page does suggest that the July-67 book is wrong where it says 6476655 was for 4.88 Z28. Since it was replaced by 6476735 (which is 4.56), presumably 6476655 was also for 4.56.

Likewise, since 3905497 was replaced by 6476736 (which is 4.10 and 4.88), presumably it was also for 4.10 and 4.88.

However, since 67 Z28 tires are presumably taller than the regular 14" tires, maybe a 4.88 with 15" wheels was close enough in final drive ratio to a 4.56 with 14" tires, so used the 4.56 adapter?? If so, then the July-67 book would be correct on that one application, but the Nov-67 book would have to be wrong. I don't see how they could both be correct ...
