There were factory-built L72 Chevelles and Camaros back in the late 60s. They were the COPO (Central Office Production Order) cars, and they're worth a ton. GM executives and certain performance-focused GM Dealers were allowed to place these special orders. That's where the ZL-1 1969 Camaros came from; they were all COPOs.

X-Tech,
A Hemi Pacer. Would love to see the Super/Stock springs work on the
egg-shaped car!

Someone mentioned the 70 AMX. A softer version of the S/S package.
The 390 with the new 70' Dog-leg style exhaust port heads, with
Mopar 440 valves. 11.0-1 compression, solid-lifter cam .(485 lift),
an aluminum dual-plane high-rise, and 750cfm Holley.
A nice HP-rating of say 360-370 (D/S or SS/G)

That would have been 'one sweet combo' for the street.

Yeah, that would've been great, Paul, but as we all know, GM had that IDIOTIC anti-racing ban in effect that limited the cubic inches (400 cu. in. max) in the very popular mid-size supercars up 'til the Fall of 1969 when the new '70 models came out with the mega-cube big-blocks.

The ruling only effected the drag strip and not the street, where more than a few street Chevelle SS's had a 427 swapped in place of the factory 396 of whatever version that was originally in there.
