Re: 70-71 CAMARO BB 4SPD
nastyz28.com has how many were made with each individual option listed, but with combinations of options it is unknown. you should first find out which big block you have; L78, L34, or LS3. just to ballbark it with 120,000 camaros in 70 and 2400 of those being 396 and half of those being 4speeds your around 1 in every 100. and these figures are very ballbark because all the L78s came 4speed.

I think Mr.Lillard might have something to say about that.

Re: 70-71 CAMARO BB 4SPD

Re: 70-71 CAMARO BB 4SPD
Ok what would be the basis for "no auto" in an L-78? ZL-1's and L-72's had them already in '69. Clearly the TH tranny was stout enough to handle the power, and of note is the fact that automatics were phased in for the Z-28 in 70 also.

Re: 70-71 CAMARO BB 4SPD
Somebody must have and options list or order sheet from back in 70 to confirm or deny the rumor of an Auto L-78 Camaro??? Could it have been a COPO option for someone who really wanted it? You see many LS-6 Auto Chevelle's and some L-78 Auto 69 Camaro's so why not a L-78 Auto 70 Camaro?

Re: 70-71 CAMARO BB 4SPD
the no auto in a 70 L78 camaro subject has been beaten to death at nastyz28, and until someone comes up with documented proof otherwise, I'm standing by my uninformed gossip. There is rumor that someone in California has one, but isnt willing to let anyone look at it or take pix.
could you get a 70 L78 chevelle with auto?
