Does anybody have one in good condition? Or does anybody have any substitute ideas?

I have 1 complete with long tank and a couple with short tank that I have rebuilt that you could swap out tanks if yours is ok. Or I could go through yours? Price would very depending on what you want and if you have a core. Let me know if I can help.

Hey Grant! I really appreciate the offer however I'm just wrapping my refurbish up. I just would like a nice yellow cap to go along with it.

Fantastic looking engine compartments. 

Obviously I don't have one or I would already know.

Were the air compressor canisters Black or anodized in 1970 ? What about in 71 ?

I thought that the 70's were anodized but I have also heard that they were also some in black. I decided to have mine redone in anodized because the compressor was missing from the car. The tank on the compressor was anodized when I found it online. Maybe someone smarter than I will chime in

Based on my original what paint was left was black. That doesn’t mean it’s correct but that’s what I went back to. I can always change it later if necessary

I  think all the ones i have are/were black. I have a question ( i will ask with others in a diff post also) what color is the wires that run that pump?

The colour of the compressor depended on the factory as far as I have seen.

Love the dual snorkel air cleaner! The factory assembly manual shows this option for the LS5. I am looking for one myself.

The dual snorkel air cleaner on the blue 71 SS is from a Pontiac GTO. The one on the red 70 SS is from a 70s Camaro.

Any data on which colors came from different factories? My 70 SS was built in Flint and has the anodized tank.

Tkx Tom, but then that still leaves me more wires to figure out. LOL
