Can anyone verify if this is a big or small block case? Thanks!

It's either a Big Block Camaro, or one from a Firebird. Can't tell much more from that angle.

Going by the color of the overspray on it (Pontiac blue/green) I’d say it was from a Firebird. I’ve never had a BB case to compare with the bird case but I’m thinking they may be the same or very close.

Mark C & Geezer...you guys were right, the owner says its from a Firebird. He also says its the same as a big block Camaro case though. True?

I think the box itself is the same. I think the bracket that holds the POA valve is a little different. I think I have a Firebird unit as the hairpin tube on return line was short, much like the one in the pic. The b/b ones extend beyond the box and bend about 45 degrees toward the passenger inner fender.
