Car description

Almost all of 1967-1969 Camaros were built in the two U.S. assembly plants: Norwood, Ohio and Van Nuys, California. There were also five non-U.S. Camaro assembly plants in countries that required local assembly and content. These plants were located in the Philippines, Belgium, Switzerland, Venezuela, and Peru. The 1969 Camaro carried over the previous year's drivetrain and major mechanical components, but all-new sheetmetal, except the hood and trunk lid, gave the car a substantially sportier look. The grille was redesigned with a heavy "V" cant and deeply inset headlights. New door skins, rear quarter panels, and rear valance panel also gave the car a much lower, wider, more aggressive look. This styling would serve for the 1969 model year only. Collectors often debate the merits of smooth, rounded lines of 1967 and 1968 model versus the heavily creased and sportier looks of the 1969.The 1969 model year was exceptionally long, extending into November 1969, due to manufacturing problem that delayed the introduction of the second generation model planned for 1970. It is a popular myth late-'69 Camaros were sold as 1970 models (due to GM publicity pictures of the '69 Camaro labeled as a 1970), but they were all assigned 1969VINcodes.

  • 1967-1969 LF7327cuin (5.4L)V8 210hp (157kW)

The 327cuin V8, introduced in 1962, had a bore of 4in and a stroke of 3.25in (82.55mm). Power ranged from 210hp to 375hp depending on the choice of carburetor or fuel injection, camshaft, cylinder heads, pistons and intake manifold. In 1962, the Duntov solid lifter cam versions produced 340hp (250kW), 344lbâ‹…ft (466Nâ‹…m) with single Carter 4-barrel, and 360hp, 352lbâ‹…ft (477Nâ‹…m) with Rochester fuel-injection. In 1964, horsepower increased to 365hp (272kW) for the now dubbedL-76version, and 375hp for the fuel injectedL-84respectively, making the L-84 the most powerful naturally aspirated, single-cam, production small block V8 until the appearance of the 385hp (287kW), 385lbâ‹…ft (522Nâ‹…m) Generation IIILS6in 2001. This block is one of three displacements that underwent a major change in 1968/1969 when the main journal size was increased from 2.30 to 2.45in. In 1965 Chevrolet released the now legendaryL-79, which was nothing more than an L-76 (11.0:1 forged pop-up pistons, forged steel rods and crank, 2.02 Corvette heads), but with the 30-30 Duntov cam replaced by the #151 hydraulic cam.

In 1966, Checker began offering the 327 as an option.[8]TheAvanti IIand its successors were powered by the 327 and later versions of the small-block V8.

In 1968, the 327 was exported to Australia for use in theHolden HK Monaro GTS327. The engine was used in the Monaro after development of the locally madeHolden V8 enginefell behind schedule. The 327 was replaced in the 1969 Monaro by the 350.
