Re: 1972 LT1 w/air

AIR, ie. Air Injection Reactor system?

Yes.

Only 1972 were available with AC, i.e. air conditioning also commonly referred to as "air."

Did all C3 LT1's come with the air system? I thought they all came with the air system.

Please make the distinction between AIR (Air Injection Reactor) system and C60 = Air conditioning which some careless speakers refer to as air.

So now please rephrase your question so we will know what you are asking.

I am referring to A.I.R. (air injection reactor). I ask the question only because of the '72 Proteam has for sale. It does not appear to have A.I.R. System. $69K. Wow

I was a mechanic back in the day when the AIR system was common. Lots of these systems were removed because they were in the way for performing routine maintenance . Most people thought that they robbed the engine of a lot of HP and removed them. I remember a pile of the compressors laying out back of the Dealership . I wish I would have hoarded them all up .
