Default Re: 450 hp L72 rating

I talked to the original owner of The Chevelle I once owned and he said "to the best of my recollection there was no decals on the air cleaner." How about the Camaros though? Did they have the cross flags and the 450HP decal? BKH, any help on this? [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img]

The COPO Camaro that Nurse Chev-Olds sold didn't have any breather decals. I think you will find that they were added by the dealers or owners. The car was written off in about 1971 in a bad accident.

The Yenko Camaro's only used the 427 cross flags on every original I have seen. It is popular to add the 450 H/P decal, but I feel that would be incorrect. But it looks nice if you like it...BKH

Thanks for the info, I thought it was just the cross flags but did not know for sure. And that is what I will go with. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]
