[ QUOTE ]
I'm not 100% positive, but I think that little bulge on the end is for 69 and maybe 70. Tom [/ QUOTE ] I agree...I think they are for 69 also..

Re: 1968 CAMARO L-78 VALVE COVERS
They don't appear to be correct for a 70 Camaro, Chevelle or Nova, there are no sending unit or TCS wire hooks on the sides. If they were there they would have a rubber coating on them as well.

Re: 1968 CAMARO L-78 VALVE COVERS
Only focusing on the driver side one (single hole)I agree with Sully on not being correct for 70. I think this is a 69 only design, but not certain whether is was used in 68. The spark wire tower is in the correct position for a 69 Camaro, forward of the rear bolt hole. Chevelle was the same design, except that the spark wire tower was aft of the rear bolt hole. Missing, however, is the temp sending unit wire clip on the lower side. Could have been lost....look to see if there any weld marks.

Re: 1968 CAMARO L-78 VALVE COVERS
Those look correct to me. The bulge on the driver's side is correct and the spark plug wire stand is in front of the bolt hole. No clips for wires and drippers. It took me over 10 years to find a set for my car.

Re: 1968 CAMARO L-78 VALVE COVERS
Yes those covers pictured are a dead on match for mine on my 68 L-35 (86K mile). The stands (locations and layout) and slant are a dead on match.
