1969 x66 with single fuel line

mcdonaldcarey · May 30, 2014

First time threader here....I have a 1969 X66 with a single fuel line. Using the grid on CRG it appears that this car started life as a L78 car. Seeking the counsel of this expert group as I'd like to boast that it was a legit L78 car but haven't found any other threads making or checking a claim like that and want to make sure I'm not missing anything from the grid.

Yes, a x66 with a single fuel line would be a solid lifter Camaro most likely a L78.
What is the build month and do you have the rear end code?
How many leaves in the rear springs?
Everyone is going to want to see pics of the TT the engine compartment/fuel line, rear end etc.
Nice I want a L78...

X66? Maybe it's old age. Or I get confused easily.

My L78 is an X22.

We should first clean up your post there... no need to repost CRG's data at length but some of that info. is not correct, maybe from reposting from one data base and the copy function misaligned the numbers. In one spot it says LM1 as 350/300 and that is not correct, that is an SS ratio. The LM1 is 350/255 only. So first off, maybe we can delete all of that info. you copied from CRG if that is alright? Then we can just help you along your info. trip here?

An L78 can be X22 or X66. Difference is that X22 got the trim package (like X11 & X33) and the X66 is with out any trims.

Jim could you edit the post and drop the pasted table, it is difficult to muddle through, a reference to the CRG is all that is needed. We know what he is asking.

Thanks all and sorry about the messy post. I'll get some pics on here in the next week or so. Rear is 5 leaf and still scouring passenger side axle for code. I did look close to see if a second line was ever present and does not appear to have been. I've got the front end up as I'm tyring to swap manual for power steeging and it's kicking my @$$. With these headers I'm probably going to have the pull the engine just to get the space I need. All that to say the the rear is compressed so I won't be under there for another week or so...

If you have headers and you are putting in a Power steering box you may have to dimple the headers to clear the pitman arm nut.
