427 Emblem Location on 69 Yenko Camaro Cowl Hood
Working on a 69 Yenko Camaro Clone (Can only dream of the real deal)and need help with the exact location of the 427 cowl hood emblem. Anybody got a measurement from the back of the cowl to the back edge of the emblem from a real one. This is a street and occasional test and tune trip car, but I want it to be as accurate as possible. Thanks in advance.

Re: 427 Emblem Location on 69 Yenko Camaro Cowl Hood
I don't think there was a specific measurement, but generally Yenko placed these emblems in about the center (or even a little farther forward of center) of the raised portion of the hood when looking at the car from the side... much farther forward than the 302 emblems on a 69 Z. Honestly, theres really no "100% correct" placement of these or any other yenko emblems besides the tailpanel ones that utilize 2 existing factory holes. Your car looks pretty nice...If you want it to be "accurate" you should get some rocker panel spears on there too... all 69 camaros (including Yenkos) had them, and it looks "naked" without em'!

Re: 427 Emblem Location on 69 Yenko Camaro Cowl Hood
Thanks for the info. In response to the other post here, I have filled out my profile. Sorry I missed the SCR this year. I seem to remember something about one recently in Pigeon Forge near Floyd Garret's museum. I stay very busy as a student minister so getting to some of the things I want to go to is tough sometimes.

Tim: were you the gentleman that wanted to measure the emblem placement on our Y-Camaro this past weekend in Commerce?
