<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: GM_427_Racer</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Hi Dave,

My second 69 Camaro that I ran in Super Stock beginning in late 1976 I ran as a SS/H (396-325HP). Unfortunately, I don't remember any of your car's former owners. I ran the car a little bit on the east coast, but not a lot. I also ran it as a 396-375 HP in SS/FA with cast iron heads and SS/EA with the original aluminum closed chamber heads (I still have one here, somewhere) and then in 1985 moved it up to SS/DA 427-425 HP and set the record in Englishtown in May of 1986.

Good Times for sure. Do you still have the car?

I have a SS/JA car last run in 1976 from Middle of PA. Was a 327 combo. It was cut to be tubbed and never finished. Now needs restored.

All,

These are the pictures of my current car. It is an NHRA Stocker, 402-375 HP 1970 Camaro, which currently is a B/SA (B Stock Automatic) and has to weigh a minimum of 3570 lbs. The NHRA Index for this class is 11.25 and the National Record is 9.91 @ 132.30 MPH, held by a gentleman from New Jersey.

These are the pictures I tried to post yesterday of my current ride.

Thanks to Bruce (Xplantdad) for the help.

Here are some pictures of my Yenko Clone project. I started this project in the early 2000's with the purchase of a nice body and my plan was to make the car into my YENKO recreation. I planned on making it look just like my original with the LeMans blue, but build it as a legal NHRA Super Stock that would fit into the SS/AA category that in my opinion would run in the 8 second zone with a legal L88 style engine built to NHRA specifications. As you will see by the pictures and in my opinion it turned out as the car I envisioned. I have to give credit where credit is due. Mike Pustelny from Almont, Michigan fabricated the chassis and Todd Frantz from Louisville, Kentucky applied the paint where he works at Lambert Auto Body. I completed the car with all the wiring, plumbing, and getting it to run. The engine in the picture is a bracket engine that I put in just to make sure everything worked as designed. GM

Just a couple more.

Since I am sure you all are wondering, why I am racing the 70 instead of the 69, the answer is simple. In order to finish paying for my daughter's college education, the 69 Yenko re-creation had to be sold, so without much hesitation, I sold the 69 in the fall of 2014. By that time, I had accumulated about 90% of the legal engine parts, so the whole package is now in Oklahoma. I keep in touch with the buyer and his family and I am assured that it will see the track next year. Should be fun to watch, not as much as driving it, but fun none the less. I did get to make a couple shake down runs with the car with the bracket engine and it was everything that I expected.

GM
