70 vette
2 questions on 70 vette..#.1 My engine suffix letters are CTG and I cant find it in any of my books. The #s match from the block to the regi, so I,m confused. The letters are very clear.Its appears to be a 350/300 AC Auto #2. Which side does the larger diameter 1/2 shaft go on drivers or pass.... Thanks

Welcome to the forum Captain...
...good to see a few of the boys in blue enjoying a fast car like the rest of us speeders...
I don't know much about the '70s C3s, sorry, I just wanted to say hi.

CTG is the code for the 70 Corvette 350/300hp with automatic so you look good there.
Both original halfshafts were 2 1/2" diamter, service replacements and all 75-up were 3".
Looks like somebody just replaced one shaft.

It may be some help to go to the 1970 Corvette Registry as well.
