The DZ 302 motor that was offered in the '67-'69 Z28 is a fantastic high revving engine.
I owned a DZ302 and wish I still had it! BTW don't forget that the MO302 started it all in '67 with a 2 bolt main cap.

Paul: Been too dang cold to work out in the garage. I still need to rip out the wiper motor and pop-up cowl. My garbage can is getting so full I'll need one of those construction dumpsters to hail all this dead weight away. :)

Jughead: Saw the green SC Nova in the March Issue of High Performance Chevys and grabbed it right away. Normally I don't buy that mag because all they have is articles on smallblock cratemotors. :U

KenSny: Hmmmm....I gotta check for old heating blankets! Lately I've been stuffing heating pads in my jockey shorts :D
