Ys 760

I spoke to John the original owner this morning...he said during the conversion that Yenko went from the 396/325 camshaft to the 427/390 camshaft...that itself gave it .060 additional lift... then add the Doug headers....those 2 items by far surpasses the 410 HP . It helps to have the original owner to confirm info.
This car is an 06E build. And was the last 67 Camaro at the Yenko dealership .
John recalls Yenko ads offering the 427 Camaros. He went with his father in early March of 68 to purchase the car and waited 12 days for the conversion.

What was converted that late? It was already a 427 conversion.

Here's an Oct '67 Newspaper Ad as OO statement above also jives exactly w/ info noted earlier about cars waiting unconverted for later builds w/ 396 or 427's to suit customer orders.
Being the 06/67 build subject car sold 03/68, it and the Blue TurboStick in this 10/67 Newspaper Ad could be one and the same?

Yenko used some creative names for the TH400 1967 Yenko Camaros

in this ad it was a "Turbo-Stick"

in another ad "Yenko Special "Super GT Hydro" "

in another ad "Turbo Hydra-matic Transmission"


Doug ,
Does your car have the 1967 type mono leaf rear springs or 1968 muti leaf type rear springs ?

The paperwork shows a spring change and charge for new springs.
