I have one(350) at the house, the only thing is I don't have a 350 or a 454 so i was looking for a 6.0l emblem to fit in the slot.

It doesn't matter to me that its the wrong color. What matters is thats the wrong size too. I have one that size, and it just won't fit.

Fit's my grille just fine. No modifications at all. It's a 73-74 GMC emblem per the GM books.

Re: 73-74 350/454 emblem size

The 73 -74 models had the 350 in yellow and the outer part black. I just looked at the grill i have in the garage and that's how it has it.

I am trying to find a 6.0L emblem that will fit in the slot. I am going more towards a personal touch than factory.
