Thank You very much for sharing these.
Joe DeLorenzo looks like a young Jeff Dotterer.

Posted the M21 ? at Tag Team over at Camaros.net (as I am not sure how much Kurt et al view this forum) for clarification.

Bob- Great Pics! I also cross posted your request for info, I am sure that some of the guys there may be able to help or be helped by you.

[/ QUOTE ] I read the thread over there,and i dont see one reply where anyone believes an m21 was available in anything other than a 350HP 396,Z28,L78 L89 or Copo either .Would love to see the factory paperwork on this one. In addition to the m21 issue, from the camarosource site " RPO NC8 (chambered exhaust) available only when SS with 325hp, 350hp or 375hp engine, or Z28 was ordered."

I went and dug out the paper work to this LM1 car. It did have a M20 in it when ordered. The chambered exhaust and M21 were added when the LT1 was installed.

Wow, what an addition. I have a 70 Z, all stock, and that LT1 is killer, even though I have the TH400! I love it.

Looks like the M20 thing is settled. Always learning.

Bob, did Scuncio convert cars after the sale, ie was this and other cars taken back for a conversion, or was this your sponsorship, ie Bob Johnson enterprises?

And if so, what were the thoughts on the LT1's back in the day?

Thanks Again,

Rich

We installed any engine in any car untill the EPA shut that down. We would swap the engine when the car was new or later on if the owner wanted. All of the race cars were paid for out of my pocket,Scuncio had nothing to do with the race program that was all me. The LT1 was and still is a great engine,I sold about 12 Vegas with the LT1 in them but nothing beats a Big Block.

Thanks for sharing these Bob!.
Any of those Scuncio Catalogs still available?

Wow. I bet the cars you sponsored brought a lot of guys into the showroom!

When you said "we" replaced, did you mean Scuncio or Bob Johnson Enterprises?

It's amazing that you still have all of this paperwork!
