Matt,

------Pretty sure its just a minor brain fart,but I dont think there were any V-6s put in any 67 Camaros.......Bill S

Bill,

There were some 60,000 V-6 Camaros built in 1967 . . . I guess that most of the Pace Setter cars were V-6's, but then again, I'm sure they were V-8's as well. Must have been a bad brain fart . . .

Maybe a 6 cyl, but not a V-6!

In the sixties I believe the only V-6 engines GM had were a small 231? aluminum buick, and a iron GMC truck engine.

I believe the aluminum engine you are refering to was a V6 213 Buick that came in some Skylarks in the 60's. The Camaros used the L6-230 and L6-250 engines for 6-cyl applications.

-----Guess thats what I was getting at........Bill S

[matt murphy]

AH Yes . . . technicalities . . . either not enough sleep on my part or maybe I just never paid much attention to a V6 or L6, I guess when they are only good for . . ., well not much . . ., and you only have V8 Muscle and 427's on your mind, then anything lesser . . . can slip by . . . un-noticed

------Matt-----6 in a row make it go. Ask Clifford,LOL!!!!!!
------Are you guys contemplating any sort of modified new GTOs? I seem to be in the minority,but it looks like a great platform for one of your build-ups!.......Bill S

Bill,

A GTO would be cool to work on because the powertrain is great. BUT, we work with dealers, so if any of them can come up with 30 or so GTO's then we might be interested, but we don't work on street cars and therefore we might not touch a GTO for a few years, just like the new Vette coming out. Again, it will take dealers a while to get the inventory of those because they are selling as fast as they get them. Both will be on our plate I bet in a few years, unless GM wants us to do something special for a limited run. I will keep my options open. Thanks for asking . . .
