66 427 underhood drippers? Install?

[William B.]

Can someone post a picture of the underhood drippers the attach to the bottom of the hood grille opening on 1965/1966 big block hoods?
I have installed mine and they do not look proper, hope someone can post a picture.

Here's 3 pics; one of RH shield on my late 396 ['66 427 is same]. The other views are of the RH shield before installation, side facing outside grille, showing dum-dum sealant. The forward end lower corner in pic 2 tucks under the hood reinforcement X-brace. Pic 3 is the rearward end of same shield. The attaching screws are chrome-plated Phillips, with star washers, in my case. Typical might be different for other production timeframes.

Hope this helps.
