I'd think a 275hp car sould have a Muncie, but I'm no numbers guru. Somebody will know! Good luck.

Well Bigb, those numbers don't seem to correspond to anything I can find, but if it's a Saginaw 4 speed transmission, it would be "correct" for your car. For 1967, the only Camaro's that came with a Muncie 4 speed would be the 350 and 396 engines. All 327's came with a Saginaw (if ordered with a 4 speed). Are there any other numbers cast into the transmission?

A Z/28 had a muncie in 1967 as well.

Thanks guys, I will be checking, I believe we may have looked at the rong side. We have the original invoice that shows the original owner paid $142.00 for a 4speed. I will let you know what i find!  :o

Look on pages 280 and following of Colvins, BY THE NUMBERS, 65-69, when you do find the numbers. Ed is right.  It should be a cast iron Saginaw in a 327/275.  But the numbers you gave aren't...
