Need Engine Compartment Decal Help
I bought some new decals for under the hood. I bought a replacement "Rocket 350 4bbl" for on the air cleaner and an emmisions decal for a 350 4bbl (~ 5"W x 3"H) that goes on the lest side top of the radiator. There is one more decal on my existing engine that I can't seem to find information on. It is another emmisions decal for the 350 4bbl that also has timing setting listed on it that is attached to the top of the fan guard (~ 10"W x 3"H). Is this a normal decal that can be bought or is this a harder one to find?
Thanks,
Thanks,

I did a little more digging and may have answered my own question. After looking at the assembly manual and looking at the decals again it appears that a previous owner may have attached two stickers from two different years to the engine where only one is needed. I believe that the smaller one is the correct one and that the larger one may be from a 1976 which it has printed at the bottom of the decal. I have included some photos. Also per the assembly manual it looks like the small sticker should be centered on the radiator and not to the left side like it is now. Any comments would still be appreciated before I remove the old decals and stick on the new ones.

Another place is Jim Osborn Reproductions. http://osborn-reproduction.com/catal..._Position=PAR:
Any engine decal that is on your car should have the correct year on it. There should be only one engine decal indicating timing, idle speed etc.

Thanks guys the sites you listed were very helpful, especially the Dr. Decal site in which photos are included in the adds. It does turn out that the larger decal is a mistake and is for a 76 Cutlass so I will be removing that one today and trying to clean off the adhesive. I already have the correct 1969 decal so I will try and remove the old one cleanly and locate the new one over to the center of the radiator per the assembly manual.
