Since little to no information on our sixes really exist, I find that factory/GM promotional shots and ads are a great source.
This early hood-less 1966 Sprint engine images is one I've always admired and somewhat used as a guide to detailing.

While freshening up the bay I will on occasion look around the web for detail info and items.
Before I blasted the shininess off this re-pop cap I considered looking for a possible NOS and
had mentioned how sometimes the prices exceed reality well this one takes my thoughts on this to a new level...
