Yenko Camaro car model

The Yenko Super Camaro was a modified Chevrolet Camaro prepared by Yenko Chevrolet, developed by the dealership owner and racer, Don Yenko. When the Camaro debuted, a General Motors corporate edict prevented it from carrying an engine larger than 400 in³ V8. This put the Camaro at a disadvantage to the Ford Mustang, Plymouth Barracuda and the Dodge Dart since neither Ford nor Plymouth/Dodge had such a limit. Admittedly Ford only had a 390 Mustang in 1967, with Carrol Shelby producing the 428 Police Interceptor equipped Shelby GT500. Don Yenko and others knew there was a market for a more powerful Camaro and found ways around the GM limit.
