Be careful, the 4P can mean an SS350, but it is also the code for a 327/275hp engine too. Do you have the original motor in the car? Post the codes and dates off of that.

Jeff is right. I hate to bust Greg McGann's site, but in this case, the info is WRONG.

See http://www.camaros.org/numbers.shtml#67Codes for the correct decoding of the 4P code. Your car could be a L30/M20 or a SS350. Tough to tell apart without the original engine or trans.

Hope you have the original engine so you have those codes.
What trans is in it?
What size tire is on the sticker in the glovebox?
Could you also post the VIN from your car?

Thanks!

Thanks to all for your replys. The car is in the body shop right now but I was able to stop by and check a couple things. First, the Vin # is 124377N181642. The sticker in the glove box says " F-70- 14, 24 psi cold. It is kind of hard to read.I could not get to the engine dates etc. (shirt and tie) but the suffix on the engine pad looks like T1124MT It was freshly painted and is also kind of hard to read. I have found the original Capri Cream paint under a layers of red and also black. I am anxious to see what this color looks like as I haven't decided to go with the original color or not yet. If anyone has a pic of a Capri Cream Camaro I'd love to see it. Thanks again for all of your help and comments. I'll get the rest of the engine numbers when I can.

It appears to be a SS350 car. Appears cause the engine date (Nov 24) is a little early for that car and build time. Could it be T0124?
Also, MT is a SS350 with std trans and AIR. I've never known a 67 Norwood car with AIR on it, I'm not sure they built any. In fact, we have 6 MT coded cars in our database and all are LA cars. All 67 smog cars in our db are LA cars.

Which digits were unclear and which one were clear? Could it be MK?
Was the VIN also stamped on that engine pad?

The tire sticker is correct for a SS350, but it was also an option for a L30 car. So not conclusive, but a good sign.

The #'s on the trans will help. Muncie (aluminum) or Saginaw (cast iron)?

The date code is fairly easy to read 1124 the last letter of the suffix is not...just the verticalpart of the letter and a dot to the upper right. It could be MI ML MH MK MT MN etc. The car does not have air. I will try to sand some of the paint off to make a better determination. Is there a way to find out if this is the original engine for sure? ie VIN # etc? The trans is a 4 speed, I will try to get numbers off that also. Thanks again.

Nice VIN tag, and yes, Kurt is correct on the LA AIR cars, AIR inj. cars were sold new in Calif. http://www.camaros.net/forum/smile.gif http://www.camaros.net/forum/smile.gif http://www.camaros.net/forum/smile.gif

Kurt S., I've been unable to get back to the shop to get any additional numbers but will when I can. My paint and body guy told me that the 4 speed in it is a Saginaw? I noticed in Harley94's post that you told him the vin and Tag lined up right, Do mine also? Thanks Again.

Yes, the VIN and trim tag match. I always check and only mentioned in the other post cause the cowl stamping didn't clearly match his VIN.

A Saginaw trans would indicate a L30/M20. You need to find the #'s on the trans, stamped right next to the side cover (drivers side).
Maybe that is a MK engine code.... If the VIN is stamped on the engine pad, that will answer tell if it is original.

BTW, by air, I meant smog. Often removed. http://www.camaros.net/forum/smile.gif

There is no VIN# at all stamped on the engine pad so I guess it is not the original motor?. I still cannot make of the last character in the suffix...when I get the car back I'll see what I can do. I found out that the trans was not original but it turned out to be a Muncie anyhow. Thanks again!

>Can I therefore "assume" that my car is a legit SS...Having a 4P code with a build date of 01E?

Short answer is no. The L30/M20 cars were being coded as 4P by then.

Most 67 NOR engines got the VIN stamped on the pad, but not all. Getting the engine code is still your best bet.

How's the speedo cable routed to the trans? Does the speedo cable hole in the firewall look factory punched?

How do you know the trans is not original?
The rearend code may shed a little light on this.
Does the rearend have the radius rod on the passenger side?

Good luck!

Thanks again for your comments. The previous owner told me that the trans. was not original . I don't know what a radius rod is? I'll look at the speedo cable hole and look for rear end numbers when I get the car back. Take care.

The radius rod is a trac bar used on the passenger side. It attached the axle to the body to control wheel hop. There is a big article on the CRG website.

Whenever you get the info. No hurry. http://www.camaros.net/forum/smile.gif
