The only other thing to consider (other than having a car vs. finding and buying a car) would be the difference in weight between the two. The Monte Carlo has to weigh only 3170 to make U/SA while the Camaro has to weigh 3770. I like towing light cars.
Valid point, Billy.
I actually didn't realize the hp rating on the 267 was that low.
It might be worth a shot for someone willing to spend the money on the rear end.

Maybe some math major could analyze the specs and give us a hp and torque potential.?
