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?
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

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.

Re: 1967 Camaro.
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.

Re: 1967 Camaro.
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.

Re: 1967 Camaro.
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.
