The car is a 68 RR sept.67 383 hp 4 speed p/s a/c Lynch Rd.
Thanks everyone

I think it may be discribed with pictures in the 68 repair manual.

I wonder if it has one of those green distributor vacuum control units? Page 14-3 of '68 service manual.

If this is the decal, then as stated above it came with this distributor vacuum control package

The instructions in that picture say "used car..."

Is that a kit for like early 70's California regulations where they had to retrofit car for NOX?

Now on the original posters car, was that original equiptment installed at the factory? Do all 50 states get those with certain drivetrain combos?

Dont know the answers to all the above questions. I just know this is an NOS unit I have.
I have another that has the regular green/white emissions decal.
These were used in 1969 on some 6cyl, big block and Hemi, each with different nipple size and bracket.
I believe only certain states required them in 68-9.
Someone out there will know more...

In your other post you listed a part number on the decal - do you have a picture.

In the 1968 model year - OPTION code 471 "Clean Air Package" was mandatory in California ONLY on all Mopars, it was a $25.00 option on Road Runner.

I don't have a picture right know but one of the guys posted one in the question & answer forum. I don't know where it goes or anything. I don't know where the part goes either.
Thanks
Charlie

Have you checked out Nick's garage?
There is an air cleaner id page.
I believe it goes on top of the intake on the right bank toward the rear, not sure on a 383, if there is a cast in location there.

Both my AAR & my '72 Cuda have California emissions packages. I thought that just meant the charcoal canister that vacuum lines run to/from.

68 is different that 72 equip.
The canister is part of the junk they added.

IIRC, '68 was the first year for federal emissions guidelines. It was pretty limited, mainly the hose from the valve cover breather to the air cleaner, and in the case of the AVS carbs, lead plugs were pressed in over the idle mixture screws to prevent tampering. And from that point, California added their own rules.
