CTV would be right. CTU is a 75 LT4, no good.

Exhaust maifolds don't look right for LT-1.if the vette used the same as the 70 Z/28 did.

You sure about that?? I'm not Corvette expert, but I don't think they used the same manifolds as the Camaro.

Your right Joe... Corvettes were given less restrictive manifolds than the Camaro... which explains the 10 HP difference in the models.

Correct. The Corvettes got the "ram's horn" manifolds vs. the "log style" for the Camaro.

This looks more and more like a great buy.

With some help from my buddy Drew Papsun the Vette expert from Long Island, NY, I bombarded the the nice elderly lady with alot of questions and all of a sudden her memory snapped into place and she admitted that her mechanic said it was a 350-300hp base car with the hood and console plates being switched before she got it 7 years ago...at first she said the engine id was CTU but then it slowly turned into CTD with the top of the D not as legeble...anyway Thanks for all the help eveyrone and back to my search for a 68 SS camaro 4 speed ragtop and 1970 LT-1 vette...

Close, but no cigar.
