Description:
Okay, lets say this Camaro rolls up to you at a light in the summer of 1969. You think
you can take it, you thought wrong. This is one of only 69 sutch Camaros built with
COPO order #9560, that little detail equipped this car with the all-aluminum ZL-1 427
BB, the steet verison of Chevy's NASCAR race engine, say hello to 430 HP, and if tuned
for dragging, 500+. Fewer than 30 remain today |

#20, It was inferior, that's why we've never mentioned it in the past. |

And don't forget the competition:
Estimated production of the Ford Cibra:
1970-----------4
Despite superior sales, Ford decided the sales "weren't superior enough" and that it wasn't necessary to continue production of the Cibra. |

#27, The 800 hp figure, of course, was estimated. GM never actually accurately dynoed the car, because it broke all their dynos. |

#30, True. They had to give it a very conservative rating. They thought that 800 hp might be believable. |

they say that the Sultan o Brun had a dyno that was strong enough for both the handcodes one dyno'd at over 1154 hp and the II dyno'd at about a frightening 2200 hp |

#32, yeah but the II made the 2200hp at 20000rpms, so it wasn't as good on the street as the first Handcode |

#34, Yeah, the original could only rev to 12000 rpms. Some say that the valves and lifters were actually made of Roswellium, but this has never been substanciated. |
