How To Drive A Blown Big Block 1100 Miles

If you have a spare 17 minutes during your day today you should check out Hot Rod magazines little cross country roadtrip film where they jumped into their 1967 Camaro with a huge blown big block V8 in it and tried to drive from LA to Arizona and back. What’s even more amazing is it was the first time the car had been on the road since 1996! As you can imagine they ran into a few teething issues…

The ‘Crusher Camaro’ has, according to the video and the subsequent article, a very usable engine contrary to what you might think about something that sticks halfway out of the car with 650hp and over the trip they managed a quite respectable 9 mpg, which all things considered isn’t as bad as you might expect!
