Just to explain the reason for the questions is my Dad is trying to get his Camaro ready for a car show and I am helping him make the poster for it and wanted to be correct in identifying the motor.

HAHA poor washing machines,they the brunt of the mess when they live in a garage.I sell lots of stuff on ebay and almost all of it is photo'ed on or in front of the washing machine.I have seen many other adds with the same location.Most common is the orange or blue stains on the machine from soap spills.I guess its the only flat surface in most garages that doesnt have crap piled on it because the wife wont let it

BTW,thats a seriously nice piece you have there.Try and find the original home before you reinstall it.it could be worth a fourtune.

He loves Camaros, has resorted 5-8 of them and has boxes of original parts.

He said the freeze plugs are tap in or press in not screw in type.


That is a Yenko hood... Cool, he said he got it at a dealership new.

I really know nothing of these cars, I build high HP '05-'08 Dodge Magnums, Chargers, Challengers, and Chrysler 300s.

Nathan:

You should either spend more time with your dad learning about the Camaros or send him over to my place so he can hang out with me! Great Car and a Greater Dad! Oh yeah, and ask him to bring those extra parts when he comes. LOL, Ed

He said on the side of the block there is a casting mark "KTT CST"

The hood was bought from either S&N or S&S Fiberglass directly back in 1968.
