Re: 9566BA's verrrrry Cooool L79....
I had a original 1970 350/350 with q-jet and iron intake
As far as hp rating reduction on L79, this could have been marketing decision because Chevy was pushing the SS396 Chevelle 66-68. I think Chevy wanted people to buy the 396 with between 325hp and 375hp so they lowed the the L79's hp to 325hp and discouraged buyers from the low optioned L79 (350hp) non SS and encouraged the customer to buy the more profitable SS 396.
