The article said the shifter was the stock Muncie type and worked very well. First time I've ever heard that! Thanks for sharing this.

That is a great Yenko article for a number of reasons.

one is , it shows a hard to find original engine photo showing no decal on the air filter lid.

This has been debated whether the COPO 427 cars had a 427 decal on the lid or did Yenko add a 427 decal to the air filter lid on some of the Yenko 427 cars.

not many original engine photos have been found to help make a correct lid restoration
