Default 76 radiator support question

Does anyone know when in the sequence did the radiator core support change in 1976?

There were multiple changes to the "early" 76 vs. the late 76. I have the early 76. What I have seen are the obvious visual things such as the corvette emblem on the rear bumper is 6 1/2" long vs. the late series which is at least 8" long. The other is the air conditioning compressor for the early is a very long compressor (approximately 12" long) vs. the late model version which is about 5" long. Wilcox Corvette has all of the info on the early vs. late core support. I just bought one for mine.
