1967 Caprice

Jesse Knapp · 08-25-2010, 11:06 PM

Since I cannot get the NHRA website to open the classification guide, it gives me rules amendments every time, I will ask this question here. Did this model yr. car, as a 3 speed automatic, have options for smallblocks and bigblocks? I know the 67/68 camaros could only run the 3 speed with a 396. Is this true of the Caprice as well? Thanks in advance.

Either way in the caprice for the small blocks and big blocks.

They did not use a 427 425 motor in 67 fullsize chevys. Just the 427 385 motor. Im very suprised that NHRA will let u Run a 425 h.p. motor in a 67 car. Considering they only made like 11 of them in 1967.
