[SCG] '63 oil filler cap

[Wrsssatty at aol.com]

With your help, I'm determined to get to the bottom of this.  To re-cap (pun 
intended) I'm trying to determine if the oil filler cap which says "Do Not 
Overfill" rather than merely "Oil" on my '63 Monza is correct.   My engine 
manufacture date is 5/20/63 and the car was
assembled the 3rd wk. of June (i.e. 6/17/63 - 6/21/63).

I looked last night at the Assembly manual (3798100) Sect. 6; Sheet A 12.00.  
The oil filler cap instructions say;

3795317 CAP ASM
3795315 OPT

Now the latter is the parts no. about which Stan East said; "3795315 used in 
perhaps some part of 61? and  then 62 and part of 63?"  (BTW, thanks, Stan!)  
The former I've not heard mention of before.  Furthermore, I don't know what 
the letters reference.

At the bottom of that page for date 1-17-63 there is a "REVISION RECORD" 
which reads; "OIL NOTE ADDED" and then below that for the date 4-25-63 is the 
"REVISION RECORD" "OIL NOTE REMOVED".  I don't know if that sheds any light on our 
discussion.

Does this new info lead to any more ideas?

Thanks!
