Re: 1969 Smokey Yunick Camaro
600 hp? What's he on? ZL-1 engines still don't do that.
The problem with the hemi head was that it made no more power than the standard head. Back in the day a Traco X-ram 302 was at maybe 425 hp. Chevy gave up on the hemi and passed it on to Smokey Yunick; the reason parts still exist. He gave up on it also and called it "...a one half-million dollar trip to $hitsville" in his book.
