I am finishing a complete restoration of a 62 impala SS 409 2x4 convertible and need some help correctly detaling the engine compartment. I have seen wax markings on the firewall. can someone translate what they are and exactly where they are supposed to be located, thanks very much Steve

It's common to see "4-spd" crayoned as well. The exact locations varied by plant and the operator who was on the job that day. If you're stripped down the firewall, you should already have the evidence you need. Verne
