Default Re: z/30 Green Meanie Motion Camaro

In the early seventies Motion offered a Phase III Z/30 small block rated @ 400hp, 425hp
& a strip only version rated @ 475hp.
The 400hp was 11-1 with an 850 double pumper.
The 425hp had a bigger cam, deeper pan and 2 - 660's on a tunnel ram.
The 475 was blueprinted with head work and 12-1 compression. You had your choice of cam,
and tunnel or street ram depending on your application.
The price range started @ $1500, $1900 and $3000 the strip only version.
They were as expensive as the 427 & 454's!
A Phase III 427 - 450hp was $1500.
A Phase III 454 - 475hp was $1500.
This may account in part for the limited number sold.
I am unfamiliar with the Green Meanie reference.
The Z30 picture I posted is not my car, I believe pictures of this car were posted on this site
over the summer, but I can't locate the thread.
