hecko, as I'm buying Parts for My 1969 Vette that I'm going to do a Restoration on and still beleive that there is a Possibility that it could be an original L-88 Car. I think I have about every Book ever Made on Corvettes but I have never found a Parts List of L-88 Cars. They had a lot of L-88 only Parts and Yes I know of Most of them but in some Area's I'm lost. Water Pumps, Balancers, Bellhousings,Clutch,Starters,ect. Corvettes by the Numbers is a great Book but I also know it missies a bunch of L-88 only stuff. Any input would be great. Richard....

Also, get a '69 assembly manual. It will show all of the L-88 specific parts.
Kevin is the #1 authority on L-88 cars, for all 3 years.

Hey Gale I had a 68 vette, it had a 327/350, it would fly. I got it up to 155mph a couple of times. I don't know how that relates to L-88's. Does anyone know. I will try the corvetterepair.com website. Gene
