Not to thread jack, but have you ever driven a 1970 Vette with an LT-1 Mark?

My dad's 67 Nova has an LT-1 and my 65 has an L79 and the Nova feels so much stronger/faster. I think the Nova is only 200lbs lighter and we have the same rear gear. I run a 4 speed and he is now an auto.

As for the technical differences between a 66 and 67, it is a real shame my ego leans towards the aluminum intake and Holley to blind me on the actual performance differences.
