That early it was a top post without question..BKH

Yep..pre May 1969 would've gotten a Delco Y55 reverse polarity top post as standard.
Delco R69 top post was the optional extra cost.

Years ago at the first ever 427 Camaro special gathering in Michigan I had my just finished 06A Yenko. The crack judging staff gave me "0" as in Zero points for my battery, cable's, and tray because I was the only car there with a side post battery. I was docked for many items that day including painted door lock assemblies, painted trunk latch, the original flash chrome valve covers, and even got points taken on my YH rallye wheels, since I didn't have mags. I came away with the lowest scoring Yenko of the event. Those were the days

Do you recall the names of any of the judges??

There is more information on these cars today than back then.I'm sure the judges are more in tune with the cars today,or they shouldn't be judging.

Buying a Stainless Chambered setup tommorow. Nobody makes a alluminized system with polished tips. Time to break out the communion money,

**bkhpah** · #18 03-11-2008, 05:45 AM

You need to call Gardner. No chambereds ever had polished or chrome tips..BKH

Give D&R classic a call 1-800-472-6952,they sell a nice alluminized system.Bought one from them a few years back and didn't have any problems,plus you can drive there and pick it up.

I have a 12A Z/28: Flat hood, narrow rear spoiler, 7K tach with 6K redline, 3.73 gears with posi, iron exhaust manifolds, battery not original. I am as crazy as I sound - What is a chambered exhaust?
