Car Craft scooped PHR even back in 1967. While the April PHR has been reprinted recently with a nice sepia color (did they print it in color back in '67?) spread about Nickey 1968? Camaros. Car Craft months earlier featured Dick Harrell supervising a 427 motor swap and did some distributor fine tuning on the Sun machine. The one comment that gets your attention; there was only 1/16 inch clearance for the motor, but TORQUE would solve that problem briefly... Of course it couldn't do much for all the extra weight that dropped the front of the car by one inch. Motion used aluminun heads on their 1967 Camaro 427...
