Sending Unit part # question

[Keith M.]

Hi,
69 AIM indicates sending unit is #6426127. I have been presented with a NOS sending unit #6428164 stated to be a service replacement. Can't find that number in GM parts wiki. Is that a correct service replacement part for my 69 L46?
Thanks,
Keith

GM #6428127 was NEVER available in SERVICE; it was a PRODUCTION-only part number. From the very beginning in 1968 GM #6428164 was the SERVICE part number for 1968-74 Corvettes. Likely, it was the exact same part as the 6428127 but included a gasket. AC Division was famous for this kind of thing but other GM parts divisions did it, too.

GM #6428164 was discontinued quite a few years ago and replaced by GM #19480449 which is also discontinued.
