Re: 1967 Yenko Camaro spec sheet
Regarding the hydraulic-cammed 410-horse/Th-400 version:
Was it a 390-horse oval-port engine that was modified to obtain the 410-horse rating? Did Yenko modify the trans/converter? Do any of the 410-horse cars survive?

Re: 1967 Yenko Camaro
I love that ad! I could throw a set of mid-year Corvette sidepipes on my car and pretend it's a Yenko*. (See pic)
I think the '66 Corvette L-72's original 450hp rating was changed to 425 (different sticker on air filter lid) by GM to help calm the insurance companies. I don't think there was any change to the engines. The motors used by "Supercar" conversion dealers were basically crate L-72 Corvette engines if I'm not mistaken. Yenko probably used the "450" rating to attract buyers. (*And I'd catch he__ for it too!)

Re: 1967 Yenko Camaro
alot of advertising for the stormers. yenko only had 3 z28s in 67 and there was a limit of 5 per dealer when they first came out I learned...so how did he obtain more z28s to turn into stormers or did he just change out the cranks on L30/M20s??
