So you put a ZL1 engine in a Yenko Camaro? Because the 427s that Yenko put in Camaros were all the L-72 425hp version. ZL1 Camaros weren't a Yenko thing. ZL1 was a COPO number that you could order, if you knew the number. There were only 69 of them made in 1969 (and two Corvettes). Nice car though, sounds great.

@brettt777 You have it backwards. The body is a regular 1969 SS camaro big block car. The engine was a ZL-1 that was cast sometime in the early to mid 70's by Don Yenko. After Chevy stopped producing the ZL-1 they sold/licensed the Winter's foundry casting for the block to Mr. Yenko and he sold them over the counter at his dealership. The casting is identical except for a slightly different part number and, of course, the 'Yenko' emblem on the block.

Thank you for not molesting that car with giant wheels...

@acemaster1001 Without Fred Gibb and Vince Piggins, the ZL-1 would have never been built.

How much compression

@jimbo98z "thank you for not prostreeting it"

So glad that when you finally got to the front of this car I didn't see the RS headlights AGAIN. It's nice to see the non RS front fascia once in awhile. The round headlights look superb.

@brettt777 COPO 9560 (69 Produced) was the Order number on a ZL1 430hp. The 9561 (1015 produced) was was the L72 verison Mark IV L72 Cast Iron V8 425hp .

@boochkn you have it wrong.the aluminum block was sold in 69.Berger Chev in GR mich was really the back door to the factory.berger had a copy of the corvette and the camaro.i was taking a vacation in the far east at the time and missed some of the street racing.i was back home for "autorama"in 1970 and the bare block was displayed and for sale for $1100.i drooled but that was all i could do.buy the way,very nice car!
