E Body engine well rubber splash shield differences - 03/01/17 02:40 AM
Specifically the pass side rubber piece. The pass side splash shield on 1970 cars had no holes for brake line. 71-74 had a hole for the brake line. Appears there might have been 2 versions used. The most common one that Ive seen has a 5/8" or so hole near the frt of the splash shield with a straight slot.
ANOTHER version I've seen looks like the 71-4 B BODY version of the splash shield with a hole in the upper rear corner with an angled slot. I found this online from a 73 Cuda. Looks like the 71-4 B body but the hole and slot not fully cutout. Never seen this but looks like the brake line doesn't go through the splash shield anyway. What year did they change that?
Can other share pictures of their splash shields so I can figure out what years got what and what changes to the brake lines were made over the years.
