I vote for 1970. Most HP ever during the 60s to 70s and each company reached their peak: AMX, SS 454/450 LS6 Chevelle and 350/370 Z28, Hemi Roadrunners, Challengers, Cudas, Super Bees, Buick GSX 455, Ram Air III GTO, Boss 302 Mustang; the list goes on. Just my 2 cents.
But on Corvettes, it is the Mid-years and the '67 427/435! |

Very nice!
I stopped to look at a '65 GTO for sale yesterday... It was a wall-hanger. .

I really miss my 67 Vette. Probably the finest car I ever owned.

Flames were all the rage, back in the 70s. Bought that way, and was a pretty cool look, for a while.
Being a car painter, I eventually changed the color to "Indian Fire Red", with a polyurethane material called Sunfire Urethane. At the same time, I swapped out the 300 HP 327, for a built 350. I started out wanting to duplicate the venerable LT-1, but got a little carried away. Took a low mileage 4 bolt main 350 apart, balanced and blue-printed, with a Hi-Flow 1-H cam, degreed as part of the blueprint, Holley Street Dominator intake manifold, Holley 650 Double pumper, and Hooker Street Competition headers. The icing on the cake was a 100 HP nitrous kit, only to be used in emergencies ; ) This car was wicked-fast, and a lot of fun to drive. |
