I've heard of 65's with L79's but have never seen one,Wayne. I've ridden in a Z16 Chevelle,before. Chevy made more than a few 66 Chevy II's with the 350hp L79 engine. I even owned one in 1974-75. However, 67 Chevy II's with the 325hp L79 engine are rare beyond belief. Have never seen or heard of a documented car. I'm certainly no authority,though.

Thanks for the info,Larry. I grew up in those times but don't ever remember anyone having a 65 or 66 Chevelle w/L79.
