Re: Yenko Stormer
I'm not sure what led you to believe the Stormer was based on a 327 car but that was an incorrect assumption. It was a race-prepped Camaro based on the Z28. If you wanted to road race your Camaro, you had to have a car which fell into the A-Sedan catagory or you raced it in the Trans-Am series. Both had a 5-liter (305 cu. in.) limit so you needed to campaign a car with that size of an engine. The Yenko Stormer was an attempt by Don Yenko to fill a perceived need for a "turn-key" Camaro road racer for those who did not want to prepare their own car.
