Why would you get a '74 Camaro? '73 was the first year of low compression engines for emissions and fuel economy reasons, so '74 being after that has low power.

If you want something with a good motor, the general rule for muscle cars is '72 or older. If you're gonna build the motor then a newer one would work.

The one exception to this rule is the Pontiac Trans Am which was available with the 455 H.O. big block up thru most of the 70s. It wasn't as powerful as the pre-'73 big blocks, but it still hauls pretty good.

But why am I talking about these actual cars? This is just another one of puffy's imaginary plans.
