Need opinions on my spark plugs , rich,lean, or just right? It was running rich and I just put 5 gallons of Cam2 in it and seems to be running great. The plugs were fouled before the Cam2. Previous to Cam2 I ran 93 octane gas.

I have a friend looking at a 67 Camaro. The seller claims it is a real Z28, I'm attaching a picture of the trim tag and one of the car. I did do some decoding of the tag and it looks like it came with a 3-speed floor shifter for M15 or M13 ( 2B ). I not familiar with the 67 trim tag and  I was wondering what you guys think of this tag.

General Discussion / 69 Z is running rich

« on: July 19, 2020, 12:25:45 AM »

Ive been trying to figure out why my 302 is running rich and fouling out my plugs. Today I put on a vacuum gauge and it read 20 to 22 and the needle was not steady, it was bouncing. I thought maybe the valve's needed adjusting , did that with no change. I'm not sure if its in the carburetor. Plug wires are new, points were cleaned and reset, distributor cap looks good. Looking for suggestions.

If a 68 Camaro came with a standard interior  would it be possible if the seats would have  white stripes on them? Also how many M22 transmissions did they put in 68 Camaros?
