Thanks Alan!

Thanks Joseph, great story!

Agreed

Huh 302

@@mattjohnson8090 yeah I'm pretty sure that in 69 that was one of the rarest Motors ever made I'm not positive but I think it is a destroked 327 Maybe not sure how they work the numbers out but I do know that is definitely right had different heads the whole nine yards check it out though

@@mattjohnson8090 yeah the 302 DZ it was a 327 engine with a 283 crank which gave it the shorter stroke of the 327 in comparison to the 350 also the heads were different to I believe they were 58cc heads in those years 67 through 69 which created more compression but I'm really not sure about the heads I think they were called double camel hump heads back in the day but not really sure my memory is not as good as it used to be as I am not really a Chevy guy I have built a few but mostly Mopars but I have always admired the 302 engine not bad for a Factory Motor 290 horsepower at 5800 RPM and massive amounts of torque at even a lower RPM the shorter stroke of the motor allowed for different gearing to be used in those cars and get to the allotted amount of RPM quicker anyway I hope this has been some kind of help to you you are stay safe stay well and as always God bless

Brandon Whorley the more I listen to it I think you are right!

@@RyanSampsonRPh It absolutely has more than a stock camshaft but it has a pretty bad skip too. Hopefully the camshaft doesn't have a lobe worn off. Pop the valve covers off to make sure all the rockers are moving properly.

Boogieman Will do! Yeah when I was pulling it out in the video (at the end) I noticed it skipped bad there too

Or make sure it isn’t miss firing. Doesn’t seem to be running that healthy

I wouldn’t worry too much about that miss right now... that motors been sitting for a loooooong time. Get some run time in, clear out the cobwebs, and that miss might just sort itself out... In the event you do have a bad cam, the stock cam for these engines are actually a decent little unit, I think both Howard’s and Crane make that cam still. IIRC it’s 222I/222E@.050 w/ .450”I/.460”E lift with stock rockers

Thank you!!

Primus54 We will definitely have to go to a car show, thanks again!

Awesome find that super low miles!! Thanks for sticking with me for another video!

wow..a caprice classic...but id settle for 71 buick riv..

@MARCUS KOHL Okay!

Nice own a 79 trans am myself

79? what like 125hp? crap

TotalMishap *185 doesn’t matter with proper engine heads valve covers and headers it makes well into 300 h

I just have the standard 350. Nothing elaborate. I don't race it. Just enjoy it on weekends and shoes

Richard Gaydos I have an olds 403 (bored out olds 350 from the factory) I use it as my daily driver

that's about a $40,000-$70,000 car that you can only drive very occasionally. nice dream: stay in school,take a doctorate or become a lawyer or politician

Tiago Guimaraes Thank you! Nice ride!

Thanks so much!

Jeff That’s awesome! Maybe he helped assemble this car?!

Been watching your progress. I live 8 miles south of Norwood ohio and a friend of mine's father painted camaros 1971 to 1987. Good chance he painted it if it was built on his shift. He went to Georgetown ky to manage paint at Toyota

big Hurtt Nice! I bet he did!

@@RyanSampsonRPh if the car has been repainted, chances are the body panel fitment and overall paint was done better the 2nd time. My friend's dad always griped that they could have been done better but the idea was to get them out the door. I live in Northern Kentucky but I know quite a few older guys who worked at Norwood G. M./ Fisher Body plant and worked on these cars. Sincerely glad another will be back on the road!

Holley's are easy. It's those Quadrajets that'll get ya.

@@125southernnh2 yeah they suck. Especially a rebuild. I used to chuck them regularly and put in Holleys.

love the slit bumper too,your right about the holes and the carriage bolts as well!!

I actually had this filmed for a future video! Unfortunately nothing was there when I dropped the tank to restore it =/

this is a Norwood Ohio car. you won't find a build sheet in most Norwood cars, the had better paper disposal processes at Norwood than Van Nuys California (LA) built cars. in the LA cars the line workers just stuffed the build sheets where ever they could. they basically used the cars as rolling garbage cans. Norwood didn't to that. I have had 2 - 76 Camaros, a 75 Camaro and my current 71 Camaro. my 71 Camaro and one of my 76 Camaros had build sheets on top of the gas tank and under the carpet on both cars. My 76 LA car also had one stuffed up into the wiring under the dash and one under the drivers seat in the springs. my 75 and 76 Norwood cars didn't have any build sheets at all.

I'm super impressed with knowledge like this. That makes sense as to not having a single remnant of paper anywhere when I dropped the tank the other day! Thanks for the information Shad

my sheet was in the back seat stuffed into the seat springs 71 and 74 z28

Vaughan Cole I will check there for mine then too, thanks for the tip! Would be pumped to find it

Very cool.Thanks buddy! 👍

Thank you! Always someone that doesn't believe something but I figured it was a good time to prove it was real!

@@RyanSampsonRPh probably went to Detroit and bought the machine they used at a an auction.. pretty convenient that they just so happened to have a few rusty screws too. You fucked up with with the paint on the tag... wasn't black enough... good try though... probably got a 12 bolt 3.73 posi at that sale too. Bet ya. ...bet ya.....😉😎

I had a factory order 73 Z28 type LT full bumper exactly like this car. Exterior emblems only said Type LT, Camaro 350, no stripes but full rally wheels. No one believed it was a Z28 until I showed them the build sticker under the hood. Yep, Z28 just like this car. Colour #029 midnight blue metallic.
