68 Yenco clone

[sYc]

No need to send me the magazine, we have it, as our DY '69 Yenko is on page 60 and our matching 2010 is on page 79.

As per the article, if you read the whole article you will see where the author Huw Evans contradicts himself in regards to the engine having solid or hydro lifters. I do not know Mr. Evans, but same as you, I would suggest he do his homework before writing about Yenko Camaros. As I re-read the magazine, and then your previous posts, I see you have been using this magazine for most, if not all of your reference material. Big mistake, as the article on the Yenko and the ZL-1 are a comedy of errors.

As happens more times then not, magazines seem to only get part of the information correct, so I rarely use them as reference, just for enjoyment.


As per facts, in front of me are a couple of very good reference books I would suggest you check out, one the COPO Connection by Ed Cunneen, that lists in detail how GM built the 1969 Yenko Camaro, taken from actual GM records, and the bible for high performance Chevrolet parts, including engines, Chevrolet By the Numbers by Alvin Colvin.
