Default 68 Engine bay decal placement

Gents,

Looking for correct placement of the "DF" Engine Shroud Decals and the "TG" Brake Master Cylinder Label for a 1968 427 390hp

Thanks

Hi T,
The TG code tag was typically on the rear of the 2 bails that secure the master cylinder cover in place. TG is for a power brake master.
The DF labels are for use the fan shroud....but, where?
Is it possible they were used in 67 but not 68?
Regards,
Alan

The decal set is for 68, so the DF labels definately belong there, where exactly is the issue

Hi T,
I'm not doubting what you ordered.
I'm doubting the applications of the stickers you received .
I believe you'll find that the DF label was a 66-67 model year item. 3 labels on non a/c cars and 4 labels on a/c cars.
Perhaps the vendor has made an error in including it in the 68 model year set?
Regards,
Alan
