Re: Barn find 67 l79 chevelle fact a/c rare!!!
Gm could,t have a chevelle rated at the same hp in 1967 as the corvette which was about a $1,000 higher price tag....They were afraid the corvette sales would have suffered so they rated the engines 25 hp lower but in fact they were identical...

Re: Barn find 67 l79 chevelle fact a/c rare!!!
I don't know if any were produced...I was just looking in Colvin's book at engine options and hp ratings....
I would imagine a stripped down 66 300 deluxe, rubber mat, L79, 4 spd, 4.10 gear, would have been a real eye opener for the garden variety SS396 [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
