The owner of this 1967 Chevrolet Camaro RS/SS convertible wanted a new engine so it was dropped off at V8 Speed & Resto Shop in Red Bud, Illinois. While there the company replaced the factory 396 ci V8 with a 427 ci (7.0 L) ZZ427/480 V8 crate motor. The new engine features aluminum heads, four-bolt main caps, forged rotating assembly, and hydraulic roller camshaft. It produces 480 horsepower at 6000 rpm and 490 lb-ft of torque at 3800 rpm. Behind the new motor sits a five-speed manual transmission. The powertrain upgrades are accentuated by a tubular suspension with adjustable coilovers, aftermarket aluminum Rally wheels, and Diamondback Classic redline tires.
