Title: A very rare Camaro indeed
Post by: Leon in Mn. on August 29, 2024, 11:41:04 PM
Seen a very rare 68 Camaro SS yesterday at a local car show.  It even had the factory 327 in it according to the owner.   SS too!   Hmm... should have taken a picture of it but was inclined not to.     ;)

Tell us more. And as stated above, there was never an SS 327 Camaro.

Youll never convince the owner he was wrong. Flatearther.

That's my point.  According the the owner, he swore it was factory.  I didn't want to argue with him.

Never argue with an idiot. People watching can't tell the difference :)   Joe

That owner can believe what he wants. Hell, I put a 302/290 sticker on the air cleaner of my 6 cylinder. The reactions were priceless.

If anyone has the 67-8 Reference book by John Hooper, look in the 6 cylinder section. I'll post a photo when I get home unless someone beats me to it.

Feast your eyes on the experimental prototype 302/290 6 cylinder engine.

You could bore a 392 chevy .060 and get very close to 302.   Just round up.   301.15

That's a 292 six with an over bore.  I recall some early drag cars with 300 inch side-draft carb stove bolts in them.
