Two places can restore them, Fred Olivera and "The Pampered Corvette". Both are pricey and slow. Date codes were ink stamped on the face. Tony's Parts www.tonysparts.com now has an improved reproduction which is now pretty darn accurate. NOS? GOOD LUCK!

with Scott.

Expect about 10-12 months turn around time from Fred Olivia.
Plan ahead, send it!

well worth the cost if your doing a correct restoration.

Here are two 070 clutchs that I have.

One is the original to my '70 Bee (bottom clutch)

The Date code is F18J

F=1970
18=18th day
J=September

The SPD on my Super Bee is 9-29-69.

I'm thinking this is how the date coding works on these (makes sense), if I'm wrong, someone please correct me

Makes sense to me James.
Unless anyone else can offer a different opinion, that is what I'll go on.

I believe the date is as follows: Month Day Year, with the letter I included. The year will start over with 1970, 1980, etc.

The first letter is the month:
A - January
B - February
C - March
D - April
E - May
F - June
G - July
H - August
I - September
J - October
K - November
L - December

The next 2 digits are the day:
Day 1-31

The last letter is the year:
A - 1960
B - 1961
C - 1962
D - 1963
E - 1964
F - 1965
G - 1966
H - 1967
I - 1968
J - 1969


So a fan with an A8J is January 8, 1969 (Wednesday). The one in the picture below is F18J or June 18, 1969 (Wednesday). F10A = June 10, 1970 (Wednesday) in the previous post.

This is what I have been told by several "experts". If it is not correct, please post the proper definition of the code.

Hope this helps.

Scott, When you say a new improved reproduction from Tony's parts do you mean there has been a change since Tony first brought them to market?

Hi

yes we have made a version with an accurate face.

we have redesigned the face of the fan clutch to be accurate

I wasnt ready to release this yet as I like to wait until I have them in hand prior to making a product announcement but the cat has been let out of the bag prematurely so I'll follow up

We are scheduled to have these new fan clutches in hand by the end of December

We had received some criticism in regards to the face not being accurate, so we modified them and here is what the new face looks like.

Thank you

Has anyone developed a "Stamp Kit" with part number & pentastar ? Date - code ?

This would be great for Tony's updated fan clutch ......

Hi

the price for the clutch fan drive unit with the new face is $300, it is a higher price then the first release clutch fan drive units which will still be available at the $200 price

Thank you
