AMD cowl for 1966-70 b-bodies does not have the tabs that go up into the bottom of the windshield gasket to hold it in place. The old one has about a dozen tabs. The new one has three that are at a 45 degree angle instead of 90 degree like the old ones .I can modify it if necessary and make the tabs, but I'm curious what other people have done.

Interesting, but my AMD was identical to the OE. Only shot I have access to ATMoment..

multiple tabs on the old cowl, only three on the new cowl and not the same angle.

I did see a picture of what was supposed to be an original cowl that only had three tab. Maybe a difference in where it was manufactured?
 
Those aren't tabs, those are where someone chisled the trim retainer clip indents open.

Just an FYI. I have done several of these. Last one I did the curvature was off on the right end. Make a cardboard template of your original and compare. Caused me an unwanted *** ache.
