I just ordered a set of "SS427" emblems. These are Trim Parts. My old 396 emblem laid flat on the grill. This part has two humps in the mounting bracket that make it protrude approx 3/4" off the grill.

Which is the correct/orignal way?

I went thru the Featured Chevelles, and its hard to tell, but it looks like Al's and Billy's 67 also stick out a bit.

So we're supposed to have "outies" and not "innies" ? http://www.chevelles.com/forum/wink.gif

I recall the paint man said something about it being a Camaro emblem ( the 396) that was modifed to work, but I had no idea of what the heck he was referring to.

I don't recall, but I have one (mounted on the wall though), I'll try to look at that tonight... recieved someone else part shipment once (67 stuff), and supplier told me to keep it, not worth shipping back...

According to Al McKenzie it should stick out.

Thnx guys. If Chief says it so, it be. Guess mine was incorrect all along.

Yep, I agree. It should be an "outie"

Gene my 427 one's also stick out(and i don't ever do anything wrong) so it must be right.

It is an outie, I have the original grille and embelem.

Thnx fellas, its on. Now if I can figure out how to remove the rear one which the paint shop glued in place ( AAARRRGHH!), I'll be all set.
