Lee Tuttle's Camaro....
 
Which engine combo is he running?

Re: Lee Tuttle's Camaro....
 
I want to say it is the 229 V-6? I might be wrong on that one.

Re: Lee Tuttle's Camaro....
 
Could it be a 267 V-8?

If its the right combo its a 305

Have to be a 267 to run U. There was no 305 2bbl available in 1980 in a Camaro.

It's a 229, but I think he is going to try the 267.

Jim,
Lee was at S. Ga. a few weeks ago testing. At that time it was a v/6 that he got from Pete. I gave him a crank & one head I had laying around for the 267. Correct me if I am wrong , I was wrong one time before but I found out later I was right.

My mistake. I would be making it a 1979 and that thing will fly. At least fly for us u/sa types

Paul - '79 Berlinetta 305 130/180, yes?

Currently V6, and yes the 305 would be the better route no question.

Re: Lee Tuttle's Camaro....
 
I wonder why he doesn't run V, seeing it barely runs the U index?

Daran Summerton 02-21-2012 04:00 PM

Re: Lee Tuttle's Camaro....
 
It's a U/SA thing.... you wouldn't understand. :)

Daran, Maybe I wouldn't , but I DO understand spending $170 + for a divisional, and then possibly not being able to run the index :-)
