Anyone have the GM part number for the 1969 Chevelle (168 tooth flexplate) metal converter cover?

Application would be TH350 and TH400 I think?

I have the plastic version, but it only fits the 153 tooth flexplate. It won't work on this 168 tooth flexplate and doesn't work with the 168 tooth starter as well.

I went to the GM dealer and they do not show a listing for the TH350 with HP 350 engine.

I'm thinking of asking for a metal cover for a 69 Corvette with the L48 300hp 350 and TH350. That would be right wouldn't it? Or the same eng/trans combo in a 69 Chevelle.

Isn't there a plastic cover for the TH350 with 168 tooth flexplate?
Seems to me my original 69 Chevelle with L48 and TH350 has a plastic cover. Maybe it uses the 153 tooth starter and flexplate?? Been 15 years since I crawled under the thing........

anybody???????


Is the TH400 and the TH350 metal converter cover in 1969 the same?

Was a 168 tooth flexplate used on the 350 in the Chevelle in 1969? Or does the highest horsepower output 350 (300hp L48) use the 153 tooth flexplate originally?

I bought mine at Summit racing it was marked with GM performance part just mounted it on a 400 trans and it fitted well with a 168 tooth flexplate but I use a ministarter but looks identical to the dust cover on my other chevelle that has 168 tooth plate and stock starter.
