a 1967 Corvette and a lovely spring day do match!

More on www.corvette1967.com. That day we were adjusting the carb, so we took it out for a spin to see how it handled.

that definitely a 327. Cant mistake that sound for anything but a 350 even.The 427 never sounded that heavy at revs past 4000, it had a really throaty sound, not something that sounds like some Chevy resto-mod engine. Sounds great though. Owned a 65 FI 327 and a 68 L88, in my opinion, those and the L88 from 67 were the best.

@MrProComedian It's a 454 crate engine. The sound might not be perfect as it is from a camera mic, but unless someone swapped the engine just before I went on that ride (and I hope not :)), it was a 454 I had in it at the time.

I'm not tryn to be an ass but i dont see the 427 badges on the stinger and it really does sound like a 327 with side pipes.

[andersriedel]

The badge is there though it's not visible in the video... And it sure does have sidepipes. At the time of the video it had 4" Super Comp Hooker Pipes, but now they are back to the original 2½" factory correct pipes.

That sounds like a 327, why did you put the big block hood on a 327 car? I know a very few came out of the factory like that but there was no stinger stripe on the hood of those few 327 cars with big block hoods.

[andersriedel]

It's a big block (Both originally and now) ;)

The good thing about this video: No distracting music spoils the enjoyment of this awesome motor sound.

i LOVE THIS CAR AND YOUR VIDEO, i DRIVE A 2000 c-5 AND I FEEL LIKE I OWN THE ROAD, BUT WITH YOUR CAR I WOULD OWN THE WORLD, i PLAY YOUR VIDEO OVER AND OVER AGAIN. tHANKS FOR HAVING THIS CAR ON DISPLAY IT IS A THING OF BEAUTY, i LOVE YOUR WEBSITE, i'M HOPING TO GET MY OWN 67 SOON. i LIVE IN fLORIDA SO i WOULD DRIVE IT YEAR ROUND.

@GTRaycer The big blocks were not much good on a track. Too front heavy. Too much understeer. Strictly point and shoot.

[GTRaycer]

I think the '67 427 Corvettes are the sexiest Corvettes ever built. Even today's ZR1, though more powerful and better handling, can't match the style and appeal of the '63-'67 Corvettes.

you pull up to stop light and rev up girls at the bus stop would yell " I WANNA RIDE I WANNA RIDE!"

[elradiuzi]

I agree with Deathtouch100 and Eltfell. However. If you feel you want to add music, feel free to post both un-altered and altered versions of the video.

427 hood FTW

[meepenator3]

the 67 is sexy!

[deathtouch100]

I agree eltfell, people should take note of that, nobody wants to hear some fucking rap song saying yo,yo bitch when you are trying to hear american muscle and all of it's glory. Too many peple drown out the engine sound with music

One of my all-time favorite cars!!! Thanks for driving it, these are made to be driven!!!
