Four car garage? Either you've got too much money to be getting your hands dirty, or Delta Fire Inc has a nice garage set up for you to use.

it's actually a 6 car garage. The side the camaro is on is double deep. It's my grandparents place. He had the house built and made sure to have a good size garage for all his cars/parts. Delta Fire is a Fire Spinkler contractor that my grandfather, dad and I have worked at.

Like the Stingray Corvette's 327?

yes, but this is the #s matching original motor for the car. The 327 was offered in two hp version in the Camaro in 1967 and 1968. Ive built this motor however like a first gen (67-69) Camaro Z/28 302 small block. The Corvette had a total of 5 different 327's (mainly just different cams and intakes but other small things).

So how much Hp. A guy across the street has 540 CID swapped 69' Nova SS. I don't have any pictures:(

I'm guessing near 400 at the flywheel. The original rating was 275 for this motor

"it's actually a 6 car garage ... It's my grandparents place"
Excellent story. I'm a grandfather. I'll go discuss with wifey our garage obligations.

Beautiful Camaro by the way. 4 speed, rally wheels, no vinyl roof, and I love the blue.
