Response to 73 Corvette EGR Valve Date Code Question Jimmy

[Thomas R.]

Jimmy,

Where is the stamping of the date on the face, top or bottom half (across?) of the valve and is it black ink? What size lettering 1/4", 1/8"?

Thanks,

tom

Tom,
All my info was right on the top surface of the dichromate plated valve. It has "Rochester" stamped in it also. I'm sorry I don't have my car at home or I would post a photo. Maybe someone else on the forum will post a pic. Or maybe try to find one on ebay. I'll look to see if there is one out there.

Tom,
There is a great example on ebay right now. If you type in Original 73 Corvette EGR valve . There is one on there for $25.00 for an L48 Automatic. It will show you where everything is on the top of the valve. Hope this helps.

Jimmy could not find 73 Vette EGR Valve for $25 L-48 automatic.

I posted again and got that you answered it initially. I have a photo of mine but, I think the date code is at the 6 O'Clock position of the valuve under the NP7047065 part # it is stamped in 342 1. I think, I've attached it to this Thread. Let me know what you think.

Thanks again

Tom,
I don't see a photo attached to your thread. Yes, the date code is stamped beneath the part number as you indicate on yours. Monte posted a great picture of his in your other post on this topic.
