Default '67 & '69 Firebird Brake Boosters

Hey Guys...
I am usually on the '70-'73 forums, but a friend has asked me to help him restore the brakeboosters on a '67 and a '69 bird. Both have power brakes.I need to know what the booster codes are for the '67's and the '69's. These are the codes stamped on the rear of the tab at the 12 o'clock position. For instance, the 1970's are 0426 and the 1971's are 1957..... Does anyone here know the correct codes for the '67's and the ''69's?? He doesn't have the originals and we need to start looking for the correct coded boosters..I appreciate the help..

Heres a pic of a 67 Tempest booster and MC
If you cant read it its code 48.
If you want it with MC ,its yours for $50.
I believe that F body and Tempest both used these 2 parts.
I have some 69 F body MC but dont see any code on them.

How about that. I never noticed a number there before. Realize you don't need it for the question but my '68 has only an "8" stamped there. If I could ever get the one elusive last bolt loose from the firewall, I'd replace it with a new one I have.

The numbers on the front of that tab(facing foward to engine compartment) is the day of the year the booster was assembled.Like the 48 is the 48th day and the 8 is the 8th day. There is a number on the other side of that same tab.That is the model yeer specific booster code that I am looking for.
And CAMMER-6, I will take the booster/MC set up. What is the code on teh rear of the tab with the 48 on it?? PM me with payment instructions..

My MC has no stamping in the spot where the Camaro US stamping is.

69 is 9222 (drums) and 9227.

No problem. Sorry I keep linking to the Camaro data, but so much is common.

Pontiac must have wanted a different brake feel in 69 so they used different boosters.

i think the boosters are the same, just different numbered casings.at most the springs inside the booster might have a different rate,everything else is identical.. anyway, thanks again...

1st digit on booster is half on/off.
My guess is 8515. Could be 3515 or B515.
The top half of digit is smaller then the bottom half.

M/C has 5460346 on 1 side.
D4 on the other.
If theres any more codes somewhere on it, let me know.
I'll clean it up and check.

The spring is different in the booster, so the response is different.
