Sam it looks like they lowered the HP for the 67 to 325 instead of 350 Hp like the 66 nova.

Colvin's book still lists them as 350hp, with 6 built. While I have a great deal of respect for nova resource, I would politely disagree. The block codes change in 68 and reflect the intake carb hp difference. I believe there are a couple of documented 67 L79s out there. If I'm wrong, I stand corrected.

Now I am with Kim and Schonye!
I am not always real crazy about books. Unless they were written in 1967. If you really want to know you can always call Grump. He supercedes any book written today in my opinion. He was THERE! |

I believe the L79 Acadians were only in '66, not in '67. Very cool cars, would love to have one - only like 100-200 built in both SS, and hardtops?
Of the 6 1967 L79 Novas, I believe 3 are found and I believe they are 350HP versions with the alum intake and the holley, not the '68 version. I wouldn't take stuff written down back in the day as gospel though You old timers were just as much a bunch of BS'rs back then as you are now I recall Don Yenko writing letters to NHRA about his 500 deuces.... et al.
