DESCRIPTION

OEM 1968-72 Chevrolet Camaro/Chevelle/Impala/Nova SS 396/427/454 LS3/LS5/L36/L72 Air Cleaner Pre-Heater Stove Chimney Tube Elbow kit. This is an original 50+ year-old pre-heater exhaust manifold stove assembly specific to the 68-72 396/454 models that has been media blasted to bare metal, then coated with high heat ceramic low gloss black. It remains in excellent condition throughout the assembly and is a very nice example of an almost impossible to find part. The stove is in excellent condition with no signs of rust and absolute minimal pitting. The chimney features the square insert with screw hole where the tube adapter inserts into the stove and is retained with the included screw. The mounting support is fully intact as well and in excellent condition - stamped FABCO by the screw hole. The black aluminized tube is new and fits tightly on both the chimney and elbow. The original plastic elbow inlet is nice as well and complete with correct screw clamp.

These are extremely hard to find - especially in near NOS condition. Back when new, these were typically discarded in lieu of presumed performance enhancements (especially once headers were installed). These pieces were removed and stored for nearly 50 years and shows that it was hardly used.

This kit presents very well and will enhance your restoration. Best of all, it is a very rare and genuine GM part!
