    75 Valve Cover Label (Eng Suffix Code)

    Can anyone describe or post a pic of the label that is applied to the back of the valve cover designating the "engine suffix code). The Judging Manual lists the label size and says it is yellow in color. Any help would be appreciated

    They look like this. Suffix is just an example.

      Hi Alger,
      Here's the original label from my 71 350/270, 4-speed, car.
      I believe there was some variation in just what the label looked like and just what info was on it. Patrick Hulst knows quite a bit about these labels.
      Regards,
      Alan

        Actually, both of the examples above look nothing like a 1975 label other than the fact that they are yellow with black characters. In 1973 - and later - they became much more complex than previous years.

          What would it look like on a 1973 LS4 and does anyone reproduce them?

            Based on my observations I think that big block 73s look similar to those above, while small blocks do not.

              Can you describe the 75 label in detail or post a pic?

              Thanks, AL
