Engine in a Camaro ZL1 at the 2002 Secretary Of State Car Show, Springfield IL. These aluminum block 427s were built by the factory for Fred Gibb Chevrolet (La Harpe IL); they were a costly go-fast option. The dealer negotiated to return most of the Camaros, which were then sold to other high-performance dealerships.
