....................... From what I read the big block Boss cars tended to have the rod. I"ll have to see if I can get face to face with a read 70 302 Boss. ..............
Hasn't been my experience for both years
As mentioned earlier have owned two early 69 302's with the rod originally in place. There are a fair number of oddities they did on very early cars that ended up later on Boss 9's only
Did do a search for you over on the other site - unfortunately allot of the pictures are no longer there (that's the problem with not storing pictures on the site) so many won't help
Here is a picture of a 69 rolled fender and measurements that someone else once posted online. Can't confirm the measurements. Might help someone else
Good luck with your search
