I have lost some relatives and close friends lately. But I am having a much more difficult time handling this.

Such a great man who was always willing to share his knowledge. An inspiration to us all and an icon for the automotive industry and hobby.

Godspeed JohnZ.

My user name (bertfam) is actually my very first email address, bertfam@pcmagic.net (which went out of business 20 years ago), and was an acronym for my family email - Bertrand Family, or bertfam!

Ed


Well I'll be a monkeys uncle.

I knew about your username, but had no idea on you being called Bert in the past!

But for now I am still going to stick to calling you Ed. :)

No Bert in this thread, its Ed.  He signed his name at the bottom of the post. 

Oh, and you are NOT boring us with stories.  We like to hear about cars like this!!!

People forget there is cool down time and drive time back to the pits, etc. but I supposed it COULD be about 1000 runs - if the speedometer was hooked up.  Many cars drag cars never had them hooked up while running.  Ours never did. :)

Nothing wrong with running what you have. Just realize what you are working with and it's limitations.

Engine designs have changed and a lot of us detune for street cruising.

302s had their day. Build a 10 or 11 to 1 small block 406 if you want power from off idle and want to stay small block. 572hp @ 6000 rpm is fairly easy to do. That's not the peak hp yet, just what it was run to on the dyno during break in. And it will rev to 7500 for shifts. :)

Could just be a dealer with little or no First Gen Camaro knowledge. Or someone trying to mislead potential buyers. Hoping it's the former and not the latter.

Thanks Tim. Does Kurt have the data? If not can we get it for the CRG database?

Here is the one I mentioned.  Can't remember if I ever posted this one before.  Cast in September 1973.  3959512 casting number, which was commonly used for warranty/service blocks.
