  • I finnally have my Yenko Camaro put back together with the new Drivetrain, the BBC makes a little over 500Hp and 550TQ, with a M21 4-Speed and 4.10 Posi..in a car that weighs 3500lbs...Needless to say the car is an animal and super fun to drive! This is really the first time I have jumped on the car hard 3/4 throttle, I have been breaking in the engine in and figured I would video the first of Many big burnouts : )

HEI with MSD 6AL setup. 1st and 2nd were useless. Was a mid 11 second car all day long weighing about 3400. I so remember that amazing fry the crap out of the Mickey Thompson 29x11s at will.

    As comparison with that very short 4,1:1 final drive ratio here in Spain was the Seat 124 Especial 2000 in 1979 known as "FL-90" by Seat, 1.919cc (117 cu.in.) 4 in line engine , 114HP, 996 Kg weight full tank, 5 speed manual gearbox and had 4.1:1 final drive ratio too, 1/4 mile was in 17,2 sec. Top speed 173Km/h (107,6mph).

Portugal, neighbour country, 2 years ago go from South to North with my Merc W124 300TD, very very good people there.

    Sounds good as i had a 67 clone in the mid 70's -- 427-425 hp dead stock with headers with 4.56 gears-- Sounds like you have a much more radical cam? 550 tq is a lot, is it a 427 and do you still have the rectangular port heads? Seems some use the oval for many applications-- very hard to hook up with those old cars and actually dangerous to control so you better get some slicks for the track, any Camaro with a good BB is GREAT, i love the hideaway headlights
