1967 Camaro.

[PaulMys]

My all-time favorite GM smallblock.

Would be either a 200HP or 275HP variant in the Camaro.

I like the L76 (365HP) and L79 (350HP) flavors of the 327. Both have 2.02 heads, 11:1 with forged, domed aluminum pistons, factory aluminum "snowflake" intake, etc. Major difference is the L76 has a solid lifter cam vs. hydraulic for the L79.

Have had both in C2's and I would take the L79 with an M21 all day long, those motors were just "Born to Run".

You couldn't run todays pump gas with those 11:1 slingers could you?

Head to the marina to get gasoline that doesn't have any ethanol in it, then add a quality octane booster.

Of course we're going to need to make up for the loss of lead, so dump a bunch of Marvel Mystery Oil in.

I know hardened valve seats are popular but there is conflicting opinion on whether they make a difference in anything but heavy-duty conditions/use.

Opps....That isn't a good picture!

But you can see---varnished stainless behind spokes with wrinkled black paint on outer edges of the varnished stainless.

Will pull the hub caps off and see if I can take it apart.

Thank you, Tommy!

This forum is all about paint, but us real car guys are interested in the whole loaf of bread. Not just the crust.

Tom,

Somewhere in here you should be able to find the Pt.# (or RPO code) for the wheel covers. Armed with that info, Skynet may be able to help you scrounge up info as to how to disassemble them.

Thanks 57 Rambler!

Will check it out.
