I don't think that there is such a thing but honestly I can't verify that where the oil cooler hoses/lines pass through the front radiator support bulkhead that grommets much like that used on the air conditioner lines were or were not used?

I can't find the engineering illustration for the oil cooler anywhere. That likely would answer my own question?

Can anyone definatively answer this question yey or ney?

In my own defense, I'm always looking for air conditioned 67-8 GT500's at the conventions but they are not common and even when you find one the details are rarely completely original.

Does that show in the assembly manual?

Was there an existing hole used for the hoses or was one cut with a hole saw? I'm not sure I could even see that detail on an assembled car?

I think the wiring harness for the left "parking/marker lamp" hole is right there isn't it?

Yes it is in assembly manual. The original hole is enlarged to accommodate the cooler lines. It can be seen just fine  8)

OK, thank you all. This is for the '68? The '67 is the same?
