Try this link. The 67 L79 had a cast iron intake and it was rated at 325HP.

It is still a very rare piece.

Well you learn something new every day. I all ways thought they were 350 HP rated in 67. It's not like you run across one everyday.

The information I posted only pertains to US built cars. Maybe Canada still had the 350HP version in 67, which may make it even rarer!

We got the same engines as you guys in the Chevy IIs. A friend's '68 L79 Chevelle was quicker than another friend's '69 L34 Chevelle by 2-3 car lengths. I don't think the engine actually lost any where near 25 hp switching to the cast iron intake and Q'Jet. These were the super sleepers that most people ignored. Too bad.
