style exhaustWikipedia Information"The Chevrolet Chevelle is a
mid-sized automobile which was produced by Chevrolet in three
generations for the 1964 through 1977 model years. Part of the
General Motors (GM) A-Body platform, the Chevelle was one of
Chevrolet's most successful nameplates. Body styles include coupes,
sedans, convertibles and station wagons. Super Sport versions were
produced through the 1973 model year, and Lagunas from 1973 through
1976. After a four-year absence, the El Camino was reintroduced as
part of the new Chevelle lineup in 1964. The Chevelle also provided
the platform for the Monte Carlo introduced in 1970. The Malibu,
the top of the line model through 1972, completely replaced the
Chevelle nameplate for the redesigned, downsized 1978 model
year.""In 1970, sheetmetal revisions gave the bodies a more
squared-up stance following the coke bottle styling, and interiors
were also redesigned. The 1970 Chevelle shared many sheet metal
body parts with the 1970 Buick Skylark GSX, both are GM automobiles
and have interchangeable sheet metal. They are also the only two
muscle cars to share the same roofline. The 1970 Chevelle came in
Sport Coupe, Sport Sedan, convertible, four-door sedan, a couple of
wagons, and coupe utility (the El Camino) body styles. Only three
of these (Malibu sport coupe, Malibu convertible and El Camino
pickup) were available with a choice of one of 2 SS options; RPO
Z25 with the SS 396 (402 cid) engine and RPO Z15 with the new 454
cid engine. The base model was now simply called Chevelle in lieu
of the former base 300 Deluxe, and was only available as a Sport
Coupe or four-door sedan. In Canada, the base series retained its
300 Deluxe name, with appropriate badging on each front fender just
behind the front wheel well. The 300 Deluxe 2-door sedan was
cancelled and replaced by the base Chevelle Sport Coupe, a 2 door
pillarless hardtop. The hardtop, convertible, and sedan received
the upgraded sheetmetal but the station wagons and El Camino
retained the previous year sheetmetal panels (which went on for the
next 2 model years). Station wagons were the entry level Nomad, the
Chevelle level Greenbrier, the Malibu level Concours and an upscale
Concours Estate. New options included power door locks and a
stalk-mounted wiper control. Production was expanded to the GM
Arlington Assembly plant in Arlington, Texas (where the Chevelle
was assembled with its corporate siblings in this case the
Oldsmobile Cutlass).Engine choices ranged from the standard 155
horsepower (116
kW) six-cylinder and 200-horsepower 307-cubic-inch V8, to a pair of
350 V8s and a pair of 402 engines. RPO Z25 SS equipment option
included one of these 402 cid engines but was still marketed as a
396. The second 402 cid engine was available under RPO, rated at
330
hp with single exhaust, and was available in any V8 series except
an SS optioned Malibu or El Camino. 1970 also saw the introduction
of the 454 cid engine and was only available with the RPO Z15 SS
Equipment option. The base 454 cu in (7.4 L) engine was rated at
360
bhp (365
PS; 268
kW), which was also available with cowl induction; and the optional
LS6 version equipped with a single 4-barrel 800 CFM Holley
carburetor produced 450
bhp (456
PS; 336
kW) at 5600 rpm and 500
lb #8901;ft (678
N #8901;m) at 3600 rpm of torque. There were 4,475 LS6 Chevelles
produced."American Dream Machines
