Default Can anybody post a photo of 69 Sprint Rods?

Curious to see if anybody has seen variations in OHC-6 Rods. Particularly with the 1969 ZH, ZN? Stick 4-bbl Block.

My original engine is in pieces, a ZH w 3 speed Saginaw. When I get home I'll look for the rods. Early Lordstown car, built mid December 1968. Engine castings I think were November.

I'm not aware of any changes on '68-'69 rods, not to say there weren't I'm just not aware of any.
I only recall the S.B. about the change in '66.

My former ZH was the very end of 1969 Firebird Norwood Plant Production, allegedly caught in a/the Strike. Original owner called it a 70 1/2 car, butt hay that was a 1982 conversation and i wasn't about to argue when the goal was buying the car.

Anyhow curious and figured somebody might have ability to photo of a Sprint rod from the tail-end on the 1969 run.

Exclamation FWIW;

I threw this out over on our Cammer Forum and the consensus is,
No different rod for '69.
The part number covers 1968-1969 1BC & 4BC
