1967 Chevrolet Camaro - Sacrilege!
1967 Chevrolet Camaro - Sacrilege!
Call it sacrilege, but Ted Nguyen stuffed an 800hp, 183ci Toyota straight-six into a bright-red '67 Camaro. This should irritate the import guys as much as the domestic lovers.If you feel like burning this issue to a crisp after reading this story--assuming you actually make it to the end--we feel your pain. Why would anyone pull an automotive Pearl Harbor by putting a Toyota Supra motor in a '67 Camaro, an original show-quality RS/SS at that? We'll save the message board trolls some time by throwing out our own official "WTF?" For decades, Chevy boys have been chuckling on the sidelines while Mouse motors and LS1s were dropped into everything from Porsches to Datsuns to BMWs to Mazdas to Hondas and even Fords. The purists balked. The heretics went fast. Now that the tables have been turned, however, maybe hybrid warfare isn't all it's cracked up to be. At least that was our knee-jerk reaction to this sushi burger; but there's far more to this machine than controversy.

The Supra motor is damn strong. My LS1 got owned by one a long while back.
If the Camaro isn't original, numbers matching anyway, then whats the big deal?
