I'll take pics of my original one when I'm at the shop again.  Was the black material made out of Phenolic plastic, like the stuff the old ash trays were made out of?

Phenolic material is not black so that's a no.

Here is Rodney from Oklahoma's solenoid I just went to see this week.  It's a 69 Mustang R code from San Jose.  October 68 build.

You didn't happen to check for a date on it did you?

I will ask Rodney to look at the date of it.

Here is a pic of the date on Rodneys solenoid.  What is that date?  I also notice it has the short lugs.  Is it possible that the longer lugs are for the boss 9's that had the large cable with the battery in the trunk?

Appears to be 6GB which should decode to July 1966 second week

Not related to Boss 429 applications Most often you will find those with the flat version of the solenoid originally
