BO, That was the only run that i could find a video of. Did the 427 run seem any faster than the supercharger run?

Tear down with head studs is not much more difficult than with head bolts. All ARP head studs have an Allen hex made into the top of the stud so u break the nuts loose then just unscrew the stud out of the block using the Allen hex on the stud just like you were un screwing a head bolt...trust me I've pulled a iron hemi head off of a 68 cuda numerous times with heads studs and if it can be done on that thing it's gonna be SIMPLE to pull an aluminum small block head off that thing...lol

The one thing I don't get about new COPO Camaro. COPO used to designate a GM product with the proformace goodies without the tell tale badging to let others and insurance compaines know that it is a high performance car. Now they are using the COPO name as the top of the line muscle machine, hood scoop and all. Placing it at the top of the food chain. It kind of defeats the idea of the COPO name to me, but I do understand using the COPO name for marketing reasons and trying to profit off of the legendary name.

Will these things even have a title or be streetable???? Anyone heard?

I wonder if the Big 3 doesn't title these special runs to avoid including them in any government standards, like CAFE?

???
