This Rare Muscle Car in this Auction was Built as a Correct Replica of a 1969 ZL-1 427 Camaro.

It will be as Close as you can Get to a Real ZL-1 with out Spending “$1 Million Dollars” for an Original 1969 ZL-1 Camaro.

Built the way "You" would have Ordered a “Muscle Car” from GM Yourself back in 1969.



Primary Purpose of the ZL-1 427 Engine was to provide an All Out Race Motor to the General Public, with a Significant Weight Reduction compared to an All Iron 427 Motor.

The ZL-1 427 also had (Aluminum Heads and Intake) compared to Iron Heads and Intake.

So you can see that the "Weight Savings" was not just in the Block Alone.

Remember in the Race World, Every 2 Pounds Saved is like (Gaining 1 in Horse Power.)


The ZL-1 Aluminum Big Blocks Weight was the same as a "1969 Z28" Small Block, so the ZL-1 427 would Corner and Brake like a 1969 Z28 Small Block.

The 1969 Z28 Dominated SCCA Racing that Year and Won the Title for 1968 and 1969.

Most of that had to do with the way the 1969 Z28 could Corner and Brake.

Your Normal Big Block Camaro was "Front End Heavy" for Cornering and Did Not Stop as well as the 1969 Z28 Camaro.


The ZL-1 Engine was a By-Product of Can–Am Racing Technology.

The ZL-1 427 Camaro Represented the "Best" of Chevrolets Research and Development.


For Years a Cloud of Secrecy and Lack of knowledge has surrounded these Incredible Muscle Cars.

The ZL-1 Camaro is the “Ultimate Factory Muscle Car” to come out of Chevrolet.

For Chevrolet Motor Division, the ZL-1 Camaro was their "Crown Jewel."

Even though Chevrolet was not in the business of Building Race Cars, (these ZL-1’s are the Epitome of Chevy’s Factory Race Cars.)


The Block is a new ZL-1 427 Block made from the (Original ZL-1 Molds). With the Correct ZL-1 Casting Number

The Original 1969 ZL-1 Mold was found in 1997 buy a Chevrolet Engineer when the Winters Foundry was getting rid of Molds they were not using any more.

He then Pushed Chevy to make these ZL-1 427Blocks again in "Limited Quantities."

This Same Engineer did the "Up Dating" on the New ZL-1 Blocks.

I have talked to this now Retired Engineer (Very Nice guy to talk to) and thanked him for bringing back these "Legendary ZL-1 427 Motors."

This ZL-1 Block will be a [Collectors Item] because of the “Limited” Quantities Made

.

These new ZL-1 Blocks have "Today’s Technology in Aluminum" and the Oil and Water passages have been Increased in Size for Better Oiling and Cooling.

These new ZL-1 427 Blocks are "By Far a Superior Block" than the old 1969 ZL-1 427 Blocks.

This Engine was Built like the 1969 ZL-1 Black and Gold Prototype Camaroswhich weremore Street-able and used the List # 4346 780Holley Carburetorwith Choke off the COPOcast iron 427 Camaro and the COPO 427 Aluminum 3933163 Intake with(TR) Washer Style Bolts.
