chamber cylinder heads, and a factory GM aluminum dual-plane intake
manifold. Topped with the correct Holley List #4346 (780CFM vacuum
secondary) carburetor, the engine is a true marvel.
The heartbeat of this Camaro is controlled by a Muncie 4-speed
transmission, date-stamped ""P9H30B"" for Sept. 30, 1969, ensuring
an authentic driving experience. The rear axle is a proper 12-bolt
posi unit dated Nov. 1968, while stock exhaust manifolds lead to a
new 2 �"" dual exhaust for an exhilarating sound.
This tribute also excels in performance and handling, featuring new
brake lines, fuel lines, and correct factory-style fasteners from
front to back. The suspension components, both front and rear, have
been replaced, ensuring a smooth and controlled ride. A heavy-duty
cooling system safeguards the engine's optimal performance.

seat interior and a Hurst 4-speed shifter, among other refinements.
The meticulous effort invested in this build is evident, with years
of searches and inquiries dedicated to acquiring NOS and/or
authentic original GM components, bearing date codes close to the
car's build date. Nearly 90% of the components used are either

drives like new - tight and quiet, until you unleash the rowdy L72
427 under the hood.
